Locking Geometric And Camera Parameters In Image-Based Three-Dimensional Modeling, And Applications Thereof
US Patent:
8115762, Feb 14, 2012
Filed:
Sep 26, 2011
Appl. No.:
13/245044
Inventors:
Zhe Fan - Boulder CO, US

Assignee:
Google Inc. - Mountain View CA
International Classification:
G06T 15/00
US Classification:
345419, 382154
Abstract:
Embodiments relate to locking geometric and camera parameters in image-based three-dimensional modeling. In a first embodiment, a computer-implemented method modifies a three-dimensional model using a set of two-dimensional photographic images. In the method, at least one constraint, input by a user, for a two-dimensional photographic image from the set of two-dimensional photographic images are received. Each constraint indicates that a position on the two-dimensional photographic image corresponds to a position on the three-dimensional model. When the number of constraints received for the two-dimensional photographic image is less than or equal to a first threshold value, camera parameters representing a camera that took the constrained photographic image. Finally, a photogrammetry algorithm is applied to at least the set of parameters to determine at least one unlocked parameter in the set of parameters and to modify the three-dimensional model based on the constraints.
