Method and System for Generating Structured Light with Spatio-Temporal Patterns for 3D Scene Reconstruction

摘要

A structured light pattern including a set of patterns in a sequence is generated by initializing a base pattern. The base pattern includes a sequence of colored stripes such that each subsequence of the colored stripes is unique for a particular size of the subsequence. The base pattern is shifted hierarchically, spatially and temporally a predetermined number of times to generate the set of patterns, wherein each pattern is different spatially and temporally. A unique location of each pixel in a set of images acquired of a scene is determined, while projecting the set of patterns onto the scene, wherein there is one image for each pattern.
