Epipolar Rectification of a Generic Camera
Keywords: photogrammetry, epipolar geometry, generic camera, pushbroom sensor, central perspective
Abstract. We propose a generic method for epipolar resampling that is not tied to a specific camera model. We demonstrate the effectiveness of the approach on a central perspective, pushbroom and pushbroom panoramic camera models. We also devise an epipolarability index that measures the suitability of an image pair for epipolar rectification, and provide a formal derivation of the ambiguity bound to epipolar resampling. An open-source implementation of the algorithm is available at github.com/micmacIGN/micmac.
