ABSTRACT


Images and videos form a rich source of information about the visual world. The extraction of 3D information from images is an important research problem in computer vision and graphics. The ubiquitous presence of cameras and the tremendous advances of processing and communication technologies yields important opportunities and challenges in those areas.

My work has focused on developing flexible techniques for recovering 3D shape, motion and appearance from images. A first example of this is an approach to recover photo-realistic 3D models of static objects or scenes from videos recorded with a hand-held camera or on a moving vehicle. A key aspect of...

1 hour!!!!!  not bad....

I haven't seen the video yet but I suspect this is done with parallax. Also, why shouldn't a "true" modeler use shortcuts? If the result is better or the same, in a shorter time, it would be just as ridiculous to deny him the use of keyboard shortcuts.

This is real good tutorial and Marc Pollefey is very famous person in computer vision field.

WTF video > 3d model? I gotta know how. I must admit there must be a way to do this, even though it's cheating and a true modeller will not cheat his way through his work by cutting corners using automated methods. This video's cool though. I will watch when I have more time.
