Description

binocular_distancebinocular_distanceBinocularDistanceBinocularDistanceBinocularDistance computes the distance values for a rectified stereo image pair using correlation techniques. The operator first calculates the disparities between the two images ImageRect1ImageRect1ImageRect1ImageRect1imageRect1 and ImageRect2ImageRect2ImageRect2ImageRect2imageRect2 similar to binocular_disparitybinocular_disparityBinocularDisparityBinocularDisparityBinocularDisparity. The resulting disparities are transformed into distance values of the corresponding 3D world points to the rectified stereo camera system as in disparity_to_distancedisparity_to_distanceDisparityToDistanceDisparityToDistanceDisparityToDistance. The distances are returned in the single-channel image DistanceDistanceDistanceDistancedistance in which each gray value represents the distance of the respective 3D world point to the stereo camera system.

The algorithm requires a reference image ImageRect1ImageRect1ImageRect1ImageRect1imageRect1 and a search image ImageRect2ImageRect2ImageRect2ImageRect2imageRect2 which must be rectified, i.e., corresponding epipolar lines are parallel and lie on identical image rows ( ). In case this assumption is violated the images can be rectified by using the operators calibrate_camerascalibrate_camerasCalibrateCamerasCalibrateCamerasCalibrateCameras, gen_binocular_rectification_mapgen_binocular_rectification_mapGenBinocularRectificationMapGenBinocularRectificationMapGenBinocularRectificationMap and map_imagemap_imageMapImageMapImageMapImage. Hence, given a pixel in the reference image ImageRect1ImageRect1ImageRect1ImageRect1imageRect1 the homologous pixel in ImageRect2ImageRect2ImageRect2ImageRect2imageRect2 is selected by searching along the corresponding row in ImageRect2ImageRect2ImageRect2ImageRect2imageRect2 and matching a local neighborhood within a rectangular window of size MaskWidthMaskWidthMaskWidthMaskWidthmaskWidth and MaskHeightMaskHeightMaskHeightMaskHeightmaskHeight. For each defined reference pixel the pixel correspondences are transformed into distances of the world points defined by the intersection of the lines of sight of a corresponding pixel pair to the z=0 plane of the rectified stereo system.

For this transformation the rectified internal camera parameters CamParamRect1CamParamRect1CamParamRect1CamParamRect1camParamRect1 of camera 1 and CamParamRect2CamParamRect2CamParamRect2CamParamRect2camParamRect2 of camera 2, and the pose with the external parameters RelPoseRectRelPoseRectRelPoseRectRelPoseRectrelPoseRect have to be defined. Latter one is of the form and characterizes the relative pose of both cameras to each other. More precisely, it specifies the point transformation from the rectified camera system 2 (ccsR2) into the rectified camera system 1 (ccsR1), see Transformations / Poses and “Solution Guide III-C - 3D Vision”. These parameters can be obtained from the operator calibrate_camerascalibrate_camerasCalibrateCamerasCalibrateCamerasCalibrateCameras and gen_binocular_rectification_mapgen_binocular_rectification_mapGenBinocularRectificationMapGenBinocularRectificationMapGenBinocularRectificationMap. After all, a quality measure for each distance value is returned in ScoreScoreScoreScorescore, containing the best result of the matching function S of a reference pixel. For the matching, the gray values of the original unprocessed images are used.

The used matching function is defined by the parameter MethodMethodMethodMethodmethod allocating three different kinds of correlation:

with

r1, c1, r2, c2: row and column coordinates of the corresponding pixels of the two input images,

g1, g2: gray values of the unprocessed input images,

N=(2m+1)(2n+1): size of correlation window

mean value within the correlation window of width 2m+1 and height 2n+1.

Note that the methods 'sad'"sad""sad""sad""sad" and 'ssd'"ssd""ssd""ssd""ssd" compare the gray values of the pixels within a mask window directly, whereas 'ncc'"ncc""ncc""ncc""ncc" compensates for the mean gray value and its variance within the mask window. Therefore, if the two images differ in brightness and contrast, this method should be preferred. For images with similar brightness and contrast 'sad'"sad""sad""sad""sad" and 'ssd'"ssd""ssd""ssd""ssd" are to be preferred as they are faster because of less complex internal computations.

It should be noted that the quality of correlation for rising S is falling in methods 'sad'"sad""sad""sad""sad" and 'ssd'"ssd""ssd""ssd""ssd" (the best quality value is 0) but rising in method 'ncc'"ncc""ncc""ncc""ncc" (the best quality value is 1.0).

The size of the correlation window has to be odd numbered and is passed in MaskWidthMaskWidthMaskWidthMaskWidthmaskWidth and MaskHeightMaskHeightMaskHeightMaskHeightmaskHeight. The search space is confined by the minimum and maximum disparity value MinDisparityMinDisparityMinDisparityMinDisparityminDisparity and MaxDisparityMaxDisparityMaxDisparityMaxDisparitymaxDisparity. Due to pixel values not defined beyond the image border the resulting domain of DistanceDistanceDistanceDistancedistance and ScoreScoreScoreScorescore is generally not set along the image border within a margin of height MaskHeightMaskHeightMaskHeightMaskHeightmaskHeight/2 at the top and bottom border and of width MaskWidthMaskWidthMaskWidthMaskWidthmaskWidth/2 at the left and right border. For the same reason, the maximum disparity range is reduced at the left and right image border.

Since matching turns out to be highly unreliable when dealing with poorly textured areas, the minimum variance within the correlation window can be defined in TextureThreshTextureThreshTextureThreshTextureThreshtextureThresh. This threshold is applied on both input images ImageRect1ImageRect1ImageRect1ImageRect1imageRect1 and ImageRect2ImageRect2ImageRect2ImageRect2imageRect2. In addition, ScoreThreshScoreThreshScoreThreshScoreThreshscoreThresh guarantees the matching quality and defines the maximum ('sad'"sad""sad""sad""sad",'ssd'"ssd""ssd""ssd""ssd") or, respectively, minimum ('ncc'"ncc""ncc""ncc""ncc") score value of the correlation function. Setting FilterFilterFilterFilterfilter to 'left_right_check'"left_right_check""left_right_check""left_right_check""left_right_check", moreover, increases the robustness of the returned matches, as the result relies on a concurrent direct and reverse match, whereas 'none'"none""none""none""none" switches it off.

The number of pyramid levels used to improve the time response of binocular_distancebinocular_distanceBinocularDistanceBinocularDistanceBinocularDistance is determined by NumLevelsNumLevelsNumLevelsNumLevelsnumLevels. Following a coarse-to-fine scheme disparity images of higher levels are computed and segmentated into rectangular subimages to reduce the disparity range on the next lower pyramid level. TextureThreshTextureThreshTextureThreshTextureThreshtextureThresh and ScoreThreshScoreThreshScoreThreshScoreThreshscoreThresh are applied on every level and the returned domain of the DistanceDistanceDistanceDistancedistance and ScoreScoreScoreScorescore images arises from the intersection of the resulting domains of every single level. Generally, pyramid structures are the more advantageous the more the distance image can be segmented into regions of homogeneous distance values and the bigger the disparity range must be specified. As a drawback, coarse pyramid levels might loose important texture information which can result in deficient distance values.

Finally, the value 'interpolation'"interpolation""interpolation""interpolation""interpolation" for parameter SubDistanceSubDistanceSubDistanceSubDistancesubDistance increases the refinement and accuracy of the distance values. It is switched off by setting the parameter to 'none'"none""none""none""none".

Attention

If using cameras with telecentric lenses, the DistanceDistanceDistanceDistancedistance is not defined as the distance of a point to the camera but as the distance from the point to the plane, defined by the y-axes of both cameras and their baseline (see gen_binocular_rectification_mapgen_binocular_rectification_mapGenBinocularRectificationMapGenBinocularRectificationMapGenBinocularRectificationMap).

For a stereo setup of mixed type (i.e., for a stereo setup in which one of the original cameras is a perspective camera and the other camera is a telecentric camera; see gen_binocular_rectification_mapgen_binocular_rectification_mapGenBinocularRectificationMapGenBinocularRectificationMapGenBinocularRectificationMap), the rectifying plane of the two cameras is in a position with respect to the object that would lead to very unintuitive distances. Therefore, binocular_distancebinocular_distanceBinocularDistanceBinocularDistanceBinocularDistance does not support a stereo setup of mixed type. For stereo setups of mixed type, please use reconstruct_surface_stereoreconstruct_surface_stereoReconstructSurfaceStereoReconstructSurfaceStereoReconstructSurfaceStereo, in which the reference coordinate system can be chosen arbitrarily. Alternatively, binocular_disparitybinocular_disparityBinocularDisparityBinocularDisparityBinocularDisparity and disparity_image_to_xyzdisparity_image_to_xyzDisparityImageToXyzDisparityImageToXyzDisparityImageToXyz might be used.

Additionally, stereo setups that contain cameras with and without hypercentric lenses at the same time are not supported.
