Volume Measurement of Deposits Based on Stereo Vision and SURF

Article Preview

Abstract:

Based on the stereo vision principle, a volume measurement method of deposit is realized. The principle can be applied for the measurement of deposits with messy texture, such as rubbish, construction waste, and small mounds. After camera calibration and image rectification, the disparity of key points are calculated using SURF feature point matching, and the mismatched point pairs are kick out by the epipolar line constrain. Delaunay triangular meshes are created on the final point pairs. Then the volumes of deposit heap are calculated according to the pinhole imaging model. Experiments show that, despite the use of ordinary USB camera, the result is still relatively accurate. If cameras with high quality and high definition are used, the method can be applied to practical applications.
