ov_3dpos_multicamera: 3D position estimate from multiple 2D views

In openvolley/ovideo: Volleyball Video Utilities

3D position estimate from multiple 2D views

Description

3D position estimate from multiple 2D views

Usage

ov_3dpos_multicamera(uv, C, method = "dlt", zinit = 2)

Arguments

uv	matrix or data.frame: u, v positions in 2D images, one row per image (u and v are the image x- and y-coordinates, normalized to the range 0-1)
C	list: a list of the same length as the number of rows in uv. The ith entry of C is the camera matrix (as returned by ov_cmat_estimate()) associated with the image coordinates in row i of uv. NOTE that the camera matrices in C must all return positions with the same orientation (i.e. all on the same court coordinates, oriented the same way)
method	string: either "dlt" (direct linear transform) or "nls" (nonlinear least-squares). The "nls" method finds the real-world x and y coordinates for each point in uv, assuming a certain value of z. It then chooses z to minimize the difference between those real-world x, y positions
zinit	numeric: initial estimate of height (only for method = "nls")

Value

A named list with components xyz (the estimated 3D position) and err (a measure of uncertainty in that position estimate - currently only for method "nls")

ov_3dpos_multicamera(rbind(uv1, uv2), list(C1, C2), method = "nls")

## with noise
uv1 <- uv1 + rnorm(2, sd = 0.02)
uv2 <- uv2 + rnorm(2, sd = 0.02)
ov_3dpos_multicamera(rbind(uv1, uv2), list(C1, C2), method = "dlt")
ov_3dpos_multicamera(rbind(uv1, uv2), list(C1, C2), method = "nls")
