Abstract

The invention discloses a geometric correction and disparity extraction device of a binocular camera, which comprises two high-speed cameras, an image parallel processing board, a data distribution control board, a plurality of DSP (Digital Signal Processing) operation daughter cards and an Ethernet switch. Images acquired by the high-speed cameras are transmitted to the image parallel processing board for real-time geometric correction, the results are distributed to the data distribution control board and one group of DSP operation daughter cards for real-time processing, and the processing results are summarized by the Ethernet switch and transmitted to receiving equipment. Different disparity extraction methods and the advanced application of binocular stereoscopic vision are realized by updating software on the DSP operation daughter cards. The invention has the advantages of high processing speed, strong real-time performance, small size, low power consumption, strong extendibility and strong flexibility; the cameras have adjustable base distance and convenient onsite debugging; and the processing process of the DSP operation daughter cards can be changed through the Ethernet or a USB flash drive.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of image processing, in particular to a device for geometric correction and parallax extraction of a binocular camera. Background technique [0002] The matching of feature points between stereo images has always been one of the most commonly used technical means in machine vision. The search for matching points in the stereo image pair is carried out along the corresponding epipolar lines of the image pair, and the geometric correction makes the corresponding epipolar lines collinear in space and parallel to one coordinate axis of the image plane, so that the search for matching points from two Dimensionality is reduced to one dimension, which greatly improves the search speed and accuracy of search results. Therefore, the correction of stereo vision images is of great significance to improve the performance of matching algorithms. [0003] Parallax is based on the further processing of matching points. By...
