Real-time 3D Reconstruction at Scale using Voxel Hashing
Online 3D reconstruction is gaining newfound interest due to the availability of real-time consumer depth cameras. The basic problem takes live overlapping depth maps as input and incrementally fuses these into a single 3D model.…

Kinectrack: Agile 6-DoF Tracking Using a Projected Dot Pattern
We present Kinectrack, a new six degree-of-freedom (6-DoF) tracker which allows real-time and low-cost pose estimation using only commodity hardware. We decouple the dot pattern emitter and IR camera of the Kinect. Keeping the camera…
Project
MonoFusion
MonoFusion allows a user to build dense 3D reconstructions of their environment in real-time, utilizing only a single, off-the-shelf web camera as the input sensor. The camera could be one already available in a tablet,…

Micro-Baseline Stereo
Tradeoffs exist between the baseline or distance between cameras and the difficulty of matching corresponding points in stereo and structure from motion. Smaller baselines result in reduced disparities reducing the accuracy of depth estimation. Larger…
