Investigation of Techniques to Generate Contours from Stereo-Pairs.
Abstract
The detection of the regions of conjugate image coincidence between two transparencies through correlation forms the basis for automated stereo-compilation systems. In this report a method of detecting the coincidence of conjugate images from a stereo-pair of transparencies using heterodyned optical correlation techniques is described in detail. Other methods of coincidence detection based on optical processing system concepts are also proposed and demonstrated. The theoretical basis for each of these methods is described and the experimental results are presented to substantiate the basic concepts. A critical evaluation of these systems from the point of view of operational requirements is also presented. (Author)
