To acquire range information for mobile robots, a TMS320DM642 DSP-based range finding system with binocular stereo vision is proposed. Firstly, paired images of the target are captured and a Gaussian filter, as well as improved Sobel kernels, are achieved. Secondly, a feature-based local stereo matching algorithm is performed so that the space location of the target can be determined. Finally, in order to improve the reliability and robustness of the stereo matching algorithm under complex conditions, the confidence filter and the left-right consistency filter are investigated to eliminate the mismatching points. In addition, the range finding algorithm is implemented in the DSP/BIOS operating system to gain real-time control. Experimental results show that the average accuracy of range finding is more than 99% for measuring single-point distances equal to 120cm in the simple scenario and the algorithm takes about 39ms for ranging a time in a complex scenario. The effectivity, as well as the feasibility, of the proposed range finding system are verified.

The goal of this paper is to present a method for object tracking and positioning based on stereo vision in real time. The method effectively combined stereo matching algorithm with object tracking algorithm, and calculated the spatial location information of the object by using binocular stereo vision while the object is being tracked. The stereo matching used dynamic programming, image pyramids and control points modification algorithm, and the object tracking mainly utilized CamShift algorithm in this paper. The experimental results have confirmed that the proposed method realized real-time tracking for moving object, accurate calculating for the object three-dimensional coordinates, which meet the applied needs of servo follow-up system.

With the rapid development of the virtual reality industry, one of the bottlenecks is the scarcity of video resources. How to capture high-definition panoramic video with depth information and real-time stereo display has become a key technical problem to be solved. In this paper, the optical optimization design scheme of panoramic imaging based on binocular stereo vision is proposed. Combined with the real-time processing algorithm of multi detector mosaic panoramic stereo imaging image, a panoramic stereo real-time imaging system is developed. Firstly, the optical optimization design scheme of panoramic imaging based on binocular stereo vision is proposed, and the space coordinate calibration platform of ultra-high precision panoramic camera based on theodolite angle compensation function is constructed. The projection matrix of adjacent cameras is obtained by solving the imaging principle of binocular stereo vision. Then, a real-time registration algorithm of multi-detector mosaic image and Lucas-Kanade optical flow method based on image segmentation are proposed to realize stereo matching and depth information estimation of panoramic imaging, and the estimation results are analyzed effectively. Experimental results show that the stereo matching time of panoramic imaging is 30 ms, the registration accuracy is 0.1 pixel, the edge information of depth map is clearer, and it can meet the imaging requirements of different lighting conditions.

To obtain effective indoor moving target localization, a reliable and stable moving target localization method based on binocular stereo vision is proposed in this paper. A moving target recognition extraction algorithm, which integrates displacement pyramid Horn–Schunck (HS) optical flow, Delaunay triangulation and Otsu threshold segmentation, is presented to separate a moving target from a complex background, called the Otsu Delaunay HS (O-DHS) method. Additionally, a stereo matching algorithm based on deep matching and stereo vision is presented to obtain dense stereo matching points pairs, called stereo deep matching (S-DM). The stereo matching point pairs of the moving target were extracted with the moving target area and stereo deep matching point pairs, then the three dimensional coordinates of the points in the moving target area were reconstructed according to the principle of binocular vision’s parallel structure. Finally, the moving target was located by the centroid method. The experimental results showed that this method can better resist image noise and repeated texture, can effectively detect and separate moving targets, and can match stereo image points in repeated textured areas more accurately and stability. This method can effectively improve the effectiveness, accuracy and robustness of three-dimensional moving target coordinates.

Binocular stereo matching is a hot and difficult problem in machine vision. In this paper, based on the matching method of Halcon which is visual software perform image matching. First, performing binocular stereo vision system calibration, based on the calibration results acquired the epipolar standard geometric structure. Then, image matching researched under this structure. At last, using ncc matching algorithm, through comparing the different parameters matching window obtain ideal match results. Experiments prove that this method not only can effectively shorten matching time, but also can achieve higher matching accuracy.

To the baggage specification automatically detection problem of self-service bag drop system, a baggage size detection algorithm based on stereo vision is proposed. The algorithm is based on binocular stereo vision measurement principle. Firstly, the canny edges of baggage image are extracted as the feature points. With the disparity gradient constraint and epipolar constraint, Stereo matching algorithm based on edge features is proposed, meanwhile, the two images play a symmetric role to ensure the reliability of matching in the matching process. The coordinates of the three dimensional points are derived with approximation of the middle point of the common perpendicular line in different planes. Experimental results show that the proposed algorithm can detect the baggage specification with appropriate accuracy.
