• Optical Inertia

    From Francois LE COAT@21:1/5 to All on Wed Feb 28 14:45:02 2024
    Hi,

    The experiment from Hernan Badino was redone. You can see it there...

    The main interest is that video is looping, and the result is almost:

    <https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0ZPJmnBh03M> Reworked

    Well, Hernan Badino is moving his head when he is walking, so the
    reconstructed trajectory is not perfectly looping at the end. But
    we can reconstruct the movement almost perfectly. We use OpenCV
    for image processing, and POV-Ray for 3D representation. We have
    to determine projective dominant motion in the video with a
    reference image, and change it when correlation drops below 80%.

    We have a 3D inertial model of motion, that's why POV-Ray helps =)

    Best regards,

    Hi,

    The principle of dominant 2D motion appeared at INRIA, it is here:

    <https://www.irisa.fr/vista/Themes/Logiciel/Motion-2D/Motion-2D.html>

    In our case, the dominant motion estimated from the approximation of optical-flow (DIS - Dense Inverse Search OpenCV) is 3D and projective.

    Three drones are flying between forests of trees. Thanks to the
    optical-flow (DIS OpenCV) measured on successive images, the
    "temporal disparity" reveals the forest of trees (3rd dimension)...

    <https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QP75EeFVyOI> 1st drone <https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fp5Z1Nu4Hko> 2nd drone <https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fLxE8iS7fPI> 3rd drone

    The interest with the forest is that trajectories are curved, in
    order to avoid obstacles. It is measured thanks to a projective
    transform, and represented with <Ry,Rz,Tx,Tz> thanks to POV-Ray.
    The evolution of the drone is shown in front-view with its camera.
