A geometric modeling tool for stereo-matching and reconstruction of a model of 3D-scene

Abstract

In this paper, we present how a geometrical modeling tool enables to accelerate the matching of stereo-images and to obtain a 3D-model of the reconstructed scene. In the first time, we represent the topology of images of segments using combinatorial maps. This representation enables to efficiently match the images and to construct, during the matching process, the topological model of the matched scene. A boundary representation of the 3D-scene is obtained by embedding this topological model in ℝ3.
