Questions and Answers

In stereo vision, how does the brain perceive depth?

  • By directly accessing the depth of a scene point along the corresponding projection ray
  • By separating the eyes horizontally to look at the world from two different points
  • By fusing retinal images and converting their disparities into relative/absolute depth perception (correct)
  • By receiving slightly different pictures of the three-dimensional scene from each eye
  • What is the purpose of stereo rectification in multiple view geometry?

  • To ensure that corresponding points in stereo images lie on the same scanline (correct)
  • To solve the correspondence problem in stereo vision
  • To calibrate the fundamental matrix
  • To estimate depth accurately from stereo
  • What is the significance of retinal disparity in stereoscopic depth perception?

  • It is a phenomenon that fuses retinal images to perceive depth
  • It is entirely understood and does not impact depth perception
  • It allows for direct access to the depth of a scene point along the corresponding projection ray
  • It converts retinal disparities into relative/absolute depth perception (correct)
  • What does it mean when it is said that humans have a stereoscopic vision?

    Study Notes

    Stereoscopic Depth Perception

    • Humans have stereoscopic vision, which is the ability to perceive depth by combining the images from both eyes.
    • The brain plays a crucial role in stereoscopic depth perception, calculating depth from the differences between the two images.

    Retinal Disparity

    • Retinal disparity refers to the difference between the images projected onto the retina of each eye.
    • This disparity is used by the brain to calculate depth in stereoscopic vision.
    • The phenomenon of retinal disparity into depth perception refers to the process of converting the disparities between the two images into a perception of depth.

    Stereo Rectification

    • Stereo rectification is a process in multiple view geometry that aims to align the images from both eyes, removing distortions and epipolar geometry errors.
    • The purpose of stereo rectification is to create a more accurate depth map from the combined images.

    Challenges in Estimating Depth

    • The primary challenge in estimating depth from stereo vision is the lack of direct access to the depth of a scene point along the corresponding projection ray in a single image.
    • This challenge is overcome by combining the images from both eyes and calculating the disparities between them.

    Epipolar Geometry

    • Epipolar geometry is a fundamental concept in multiple view geometry that describes the relationship between the images from different views.
    • The significance of epipolar geometry in multiple view perception lies in its ability to provide a framework for understanding the relationships between the images and calculating depth.

    Primary Function of Stereo Vision

    • The primary function of stereo vision in humans is to provide a sense of depth and distance, allowing us to navigate and interact with the world around us.
