Abstract:Real-time 3D reconstruction using depth information has become a critical part of many emerging applications, like augmented reality, autonomous robot navigation and teleoperation to hazardous locations. This paper presents two novel methods to improve on the 3D reconstruction quality of static scenes using depth images. First, a new anisotropic depth filtering along with confidence indicator for every filtered depth value is proposed. Second, a modified pose estimation method, which incorporates the uncertain… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
