Imaging Beyond the Pinhole Camera

Download or read book Imaging Beyond the Pinhole Camera written by Kostas Daniilidis and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2006-09-21 with total page 371 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book traces progress in photography since the first pinhole, or camera obscura, architecture. The authors describe innovations such as photogrammetry, and omnidirectional vision for robotic navigation. The text shows how new camera architectures create a need to master related projective geometries for calibration, binocular stereo, static or dynamic scene understanding. Written by leading researchers in the field, this book also explores applications of alternative camera architectures.
