135 results about "Vanishing point" patented technology

A vanishing point is a point on the image plane of a perspective drawing where the two-dimensional perspective projections (or drawings) of mutually parallel lines in three-dimensional space appear to converge. When the set of parallel lines is perpendicular to a picture plane, the construction is known as one-point perspective, and their vanishing point corresponds to the oculus, or "eye point", from which the image should be viewed for correct perspective geometry. Traditional linear drawings use objects with one to three sets of parallels, defining one to three vanishing points.

Utilizing the important geometric phenomenon that the angle between two straight lines in the camera coordinate system is equal to the angle between the unit direction vectors of the two sets of parallel lines, a method for quickly solving the camera focal length is established. Finally, the correspondence of unit direction vectors is converted into the correspondence of spatial points between two coordinate systems with the same origin to solve for the camera attitude. This invention reduces the number of vanishing points required for camera calibration, shortens the calibration time, provides a unique solution, and can simultaneously solve for focal length and attitude, among other advantages.
