Description:

An Introduction to 3D Computer Vision Algorithms and Techniques takes a novel approach to 3D computer vision as it gives comprehensive coverage of methods and theory, but with a strong emphasis on practical algorithms and implementation issues. The book ranges from an overview of the basics of computer vision, with a brief history of vision research and a section on 2D and 3D vision and image analysis, to chapters exploring a range of image matching algorithms, space reconstruction and multi view integration. Concise appendices consolidate advanced modern methods for image analysis such as projective geometry and tensor algebra for machine vision, allowing the reader to become quickly…
