Piecewise planar reconstruction of three-dimensional scenes

摘要

Methods, systems, and computer-readable media for reconstruction a three-dimensional scene from a collection of two-dimensional images are provided. A computerized reconstruction system executes computer vision algorithms on the collection of two-dimensional images to identify candidate planes that are used to model visual characteristics of the environment depicted in the two-dimensional images. The computer vision algorithms may minimize an energy function that represents the relationships and similarities among features of the two-dimensional images to assign pixels of the two dimensional images to planes in the three dimensional scene. The three-dimensional scene is navigable and depicts viewpoint transitions between multiple two-dimensional images.
