This paper investigates the robustness of watermarking techniques for stereo or multi-view images generated from texture and depth images. A three-dimensional (3D) warping technique is applied to texture and depth images to generate stereo or multi-view images for a 3D display. By using the 3D warping technique, in this paper, we developed watermarking techniques and evaluated the robustness of these techniques that can extract watermarks from texture images even when the viewpoints are moved. A depth image is used to generate a stereo image with the largest viewpoint difference to the left and right. The overlapping region in the stereo image that does not disappear after warping is then obtained, and DWT is applied to this region to embed a watermark in the LL sub-band. The proposed watermarking techniques were found to yield bit error rates of about 3%-16% when they were applied to stereo images generated from texture and depth images. Furthermore, the results showed that the copyright could be seen when the extracted watermark was visually confirmed.

For acquisition of 3-Dimensional information in real space, stereo vision system is suitable. In the stereo system, 3D real world position is derived from translation of coordinates between cameras and world. Thus, to use stereo vision, it is needed to construct a precise system which provides kinematically precise translation between camera and world coordinate, in spite of intricacy and hardness. So much cost and time should be spent to build the system. In this paper, facilely to solve previous problem, a method which can easily obtain 3D informations using reference objects and RSD(Relative Stereo Disparity) is proposed. Instead of direct computation of position with translation of coordinates, only relative stereo disparity in stereo pair of image is used to find the reference depth of objects, and real 3D position is computed with initial condition of reference objects. In computation, subpixel resolution is involved to find the display for accuracy. To find the RSD, corresponding points are calculated in subpixel resolution. So the result in experiemnt will be shown that subpixel resolution is more accurate than 1 pixel resolution.

3D geometric modeling of an object of interest has been intensively investigated in many fields including CAD/CAM and computer graphics. Traditionally, CAD and geometric modeling tools are widely used to create geometric models that have nearly the same shape of 3D real objects or satisfy designers intent. Recently, with the help of the reverse engineering (RE) technology, we can easily acquire 3D point data from the objects and create 3D geometric models that perfectly fit the scanned data more easily and fast. In this paper, we present 3D geometric model generation based on a stereo vision system (SVS) using random pattern projection. A triangular mesh is considered as the resulting geometric model. In order to obtain reasonable results with the SVS-based geometric model generation, we deal with many steps including camera calibration, stereo matching, scanning from multiple views, noise handling, registration, and triangular mesh generation. To acquire reliable stere matching, we project random patterns onto the object. With experiments using various random patterns, we propose several tips helpful for the quality of the results. Some examples are given to show their usefulness.

The ability to efficiently and robustly recover accurate 3D terrain models from sets of stereoscopic images is important to many civilian and military applications. To develop an effective and practical terrain modeling system, we propose a new multi-image stereo method which detect unreliable elevations in DEM(Digital Elevation Map), and fuse several DEMs from multiple sources into an accurate and reliable results. This paper focuses on two key factors for generating robust 3D terrain models: the ability to detect unreliable elevation estimates and the ability to fuse the reliable elevations into a single optimal terrain model. We apply the self-consistency methodology to reconstruct accurate DEM from multi-image and show the method is more effective than the conventional stereo image 3D reconstruction method. Using photo-realistic simulator, four synthetic image are generated from ground truth DEM and orthoimage to evaluate the accuracy of the proposed method quantitatively.

This thesis explores the problem of reconstructing a three-dimensional(3D) scene given a set of images or image sequences of the scene. It describes efficient methods for the 3D reconstruction of static and dynamic scenes from stereo images, stereo image sequences, and images captured from multiple viewpoints. Novel methods for image-based and volumetric modelling approaches to 3D reconstruction are presented, with an emphasis on the development of efficient algorithm which produce high quality and accurate reconstructions. For image-based 3D reconstruction a novel energy minimisation scheme, Iterated Dynamic Programming, is presented for the efficient computation of strong local minima of discontinuity preserving energyy functions. Coupled with a novel morphological decomposition method and subregioning schemes for the efficient computation of a narrowband matching cost volume. the minimisation framework is applied to solve problems in stereo matching, stereo-temporal reconstruction, motion estimation, 2D image registration and 3D image registration. This thesis establishes Iterated Dynamic Programming as an efficient and effective energy minimisation scheme suitable for computer vision problems which involve finding correspondences across images. For 3D reconstruction from multiple view images with arbitrary camera placement, a novel volumetric modelling technique, Embedded Voxel Colouring, is presented that efficiently embeds all reconstructions of a 3D scene into a single output in a single scan of the volumetric space under exact visibility. An adaptive thresholding framework is also introduced for the computation of the optimal set of thresholds to obtain high quality 3D reconstructions. This thesis establishes the Embedded Voxel Colouring framework as a fast, efficient and effective method for 3D reconstruction from multiple view images.

A process of 3-D particle image velocimetry, called here, as '3-D stereo PIV' was developed for the measurement of a section field of 3-D complex flows. The present method includes modeling of camera by a calibrator based on the homogeneous coordinate system, transfromation of oblique-angled image to transformed image, identification of 2-D velocity vectors by 2-D cross-correlation equation, stereo matching of 2-D velocity vectors of two cameras, accurate calculation of 3-D velocity vectors by homogeneous coordinate system and finally 3-D animation as the post processing. In principle, as two frame images only are necessary for the single instantaneous analysis of a section field of 3-D flow, more effective vectors are obtainable contrary to the previous multi-frame vector algorithm. An experimental system was also used for the application of the proposed method. Three analog CCD cameras and an Argon-Ion Laser(300mW) for illumination were adopted to capture the wake flow behind a bluff obstacle.

최근 3D 디스플레이 환경들이 확대되면서 컴퓨터와 3D 디스플레이 장치들을 통해 개인의 입체 시력을 검사하려는 다양한 시도들이 제안되었다. 기존의 입체검사도구들에 비해 3D 디스플레이를 이용한 입체 시력 검사는 여러 장점들을 갖고 있지만, 3D TV나 모니터에서는 최소로 조작할 수 있는 양안시차의 한계가 1픽셀이다. 관찰거리가 짧은 pc 환경에서는 1 픽셀의 양안 시차 값은 정상 입체 시력을 구분해 낼 수 있는 기준보다 너무 크다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 문제를 극복하고자 가보 자극을 사용하여 1픽셀보다 작은 단위의 양안 시차를 제공할 수 있는 입체 검사 자극을 생성한 후 이 자극이 입체 시력 검사자극으로 적용가능한 지를 탐색적으로 살펴보았다. 넓은 범위의 시차를 1회만 측정하는 기존의 입체 시력 검사 대신에 좁은 범위의 시차 값에 대해 조건 당 10번의 반복 측정을 실시하여 각 개인별 정답률을 구하였다. 가보 영상을 사용한 검사결과의 신뢰도와 타당도를 살펴보기 위해 기존 입체 시력 검사에 사용되는 무선점 입체 자극을 이용한 검사 결과와 가보 영상을 이용한 검사결과를 비교하였고 그 결과 온건한 정도의 상관관계를 보여주었다. 또한 검사 결과가 얼마나 신뢰도운지를 평가하기 위해 약 1개월 후에 동일한 환경에서 가보 영상을 이용하여 입체 시력을 측정한 후, 두 검사 결과를 비교한 결과 높은 검사-재검사 신뢰도를 보였다. 이러한 결과는 가보 자극을 사용하여 입체 검사 도구를 개발하는 경우 충분히 신뢰로운 결과를 산출할 수 있음을 시사하는 것으로, 가보 자극은 충분한 관찰거리가 제공되지 않거나 혹은 매우 정밀한 단위로 입체 시력을 평가할 필요가 있는 상황에서 개인의 입체 시력을 평가하기에 적절한 자극임을 보여준다.

There are several methods to record three dimensional (3D) information of objects such as lens array based integral imaging, synthetic aperture integral imaging (SAII), computer synthesized integral imaging (CSII), axially distributed image sensing (ADS), and axially distributed stereo image sensing (ADSS). ADSS method is capable of recording partially occluded 3D objects and reconstructing high-resolution slice plane images. In this paper, we present a computational method for depth extraction of partially occluded 3D objects using ADSS. In the proposed method, the high resolution elemental stereo image pairs are recorded by simply moving the stereo camera along the optical axis and the recorded elemental image pairs are used to reconstruct 3D slice images using the computational reconstruction algorithm. To extract depth information of partially occluded 3D object, we utilize the edge enhancement and simple block matching algorithm between two reconstructed slice image pair. To demonstrate the proposed method, we carry out the preliminary experiments and the results are presented.

3차원 정보를 추출하기 위해서는 중복된 영역에 대하여 서로 다른 시야각을 가지고 있는 입체 영상이 존재하여야 하며, 비디오 프레임 영상에 있어서 입체 모자이크 영상은 연속적인 프레임 영상에서 좌우 슬라이스 영상을 추출하여 모자이킹 함으로써 제작할 수 있다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 항공기에 탑재한 비디오카메라로 촬영한 영상의 활용성을 극대화하기 위하여 3차원 정보 추출이 가능한 입체 모자이크 영상을 제작하는데 목적을 두고 있다. 모자이크 영상을 제작하기 위해서는 인접한 비디오 프레임 영상간의 위치관계를 규명하기 위한 이동변수가 결정되어져야 하므로, 본 연구에서는 자유 모자이크 방법으로 GPS/INS 데이터 없이 인접한 프레임 영상간의 상호표정요소를 이용한 방법을 사용하였다. 이동변수를 결정 한 후, 영상등록, 영상 슬라이싱, 접합선 추출 및 3D 모자이킹 과정을 거쳐 최종적인 입체 모자이크 영상을 제작하였다. 본 연구의 결과로써 제작된 자유 입체 모자이크 영상과 그 적용 가능성을 분석하기 위하여 종시차와 횡시차를 분석하여 나타내었다.
