TL;DR: This article focuses on the system architecture definition, selection of optimal frames for 3D cloud reconstruction, automated generation of sparse and dense point clouds, mesh modelling techniques and post-processing actions of the REPLICATE project.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Progressive Prioritized Multi-view Stereo
TL;DR: This work proposes a progressive patch based multiview stereo algorithm able to deliver a dense point cloud at any time to enable an immediate feedback on the reconstruction process in a user centric scenario.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Cloud-based collaborative 3D reconstruction using smartphones
TL;DR: A pipeline that enables multiple users to collaboratively acquire images with monocular smartphones and derive a 3D point cloud using a remote reconstruction server and on-the-fly feedback to the user to be generated about current reconstruction progress is presented.
Journal ArticleDOI
3d reconstruction with a collaborative approachbased on smartphones and a cloud-based server
Erica Nocerino,Fabio Poiesi,Alex Locher,Y. T. Tefera,Fabio Remondino,Paul Chippendale,L. Van Gool +6 more
TL;DR: A collaborative image-based 3D reconstruction pipeline to perform image acquisition with a smartphone and geometric3D reconstruction on a server during concurrent or disjoint acquisition sessions is presented.
Book ChapterDOI
Progressive Structure from Motion
TL;DR: This paper proposes a new reconstruction pipeline working in a progressive manner rather than in a batch processing scheme that is able to recover from failed reconstructions in early stages, avoids to take binding decisions, delivers a progressive output and yet maintains the capabilities of existing pipelines.
