3D reconstruction of multiple views with altering search path and occlusion modeling

摘要

An image processing system and method reconstructs 3D image information corresponding to a scene from a plurality of 2D images of the scene. The method receives a plurality of image features corresponded between different 2D views of the scene, the corresponded image features deviating between different views as a result of camera relative motion. The method determines image features of the received plurality of image features that are occluded views, determines image features of the received plurality of image features that are confident seeds associated with 3D depth information, and propagates 3D depth information from the confident seeds to neighboring image features, while avoiding image features that have been determined to be occluded views. The 3D image information can be rendered and displayed such as for a virtual walkthrough of the scene.
