Three dimensional reconstruction using vertical constraints from a photograph

Abstract

Two photographs are necessary to reconstruct three dimensions conventionally. A problem to reconstruct three dimensions from one piece of photograph is a poor setting problem, that a right solution cannot be found uniformly. Even if human watches one piece of photograph, human feels depth. This is so that human has prior knowledge. We propose a technique to reconstruct three dimensions from one piece of photograph in this paper. We use a rectangle and perpendicular relations between quadrangles for prior knowledge here. We actually reconstruct three dimensions from one piece of photograph and show the effectiveness. © 2010 Springer-Verlag.
