Abstract:
A method, apparatus, and system provide for three-dimensional (3D) image reconstructing. Two or more cameras are mounted to one or more vehicles. The cameras are capable of moving with respect to each other. A baseline distance between each of the cameras is determined. A two-dimensional (2D) image is simultaneously acquired from each of the cameras. The acquiring is time synchronized and the vehicles are moving during the acquiring. The 2D images from the two or more cameras are matched. A delta pose between the cameras is reconstructed based on the matching and baseline distance. Based on the delta pose, a 3D image is instantaneously constructed.
