YCrCb Color Model

A color model often used for digital videos, representing colors as luminance (Y) and two color difference signals (Cr and Cb). It improves efficiency by focusing more bandwidth on luminance, which humans are more sensitive to.

Luminance (Y)

The brightness or intensity of light, encoding how light or dark a color appears.

Chrominance (Cr, Cb)

Color difference signals that describe the color of light, capturing how much 'red' and 'blue' is present compared to the luminance (Y).

Signup and view all the flashcards

Why Use YCrCb?

Using YCrCb is more efficient for storing and transmitting video. It prioritizes luminance, to which humans are most sensitive. We need less information to represent the colors (Cr and Cb) since they are less important in perception.

Study Notes

Digital Image Processing

Introduction to 3D Processing

  • Core areas: Computer Graphics, Signal/Image Processing, TV & Movies
  • Computer Graphics involves modeling, creating, manipulating, and animating 3D objects, including realistic rendering of synthetic scenes (e.g., ray tracing, Z-buffer).
  • Signal/Image Processing methods extract 3D scene information from (multi-view) videos, including structure from motion, structure from stereo, shape from shading, and structure from zooming.
  • Customizing algorithms for 3D data (like compression) is also part of this area.
  • TV and Movies leverage stereoscopic visualization for real or virtual scenes.

3D Data Acquisition (2.5D & 3D)

  • Methods include creating 3D meshes and textures from scratch.
  • Employing specific sensors (active or passive):
    • Multi-view acquisitions (including stereoscopic)
    • 3D scanners like Minolta or Cyberware

Depth Cameras (RGB-D)

  • Includes Stereo Setup, Time of Flight, Structured light, Light Field:
    • Stereo Setup (Passive system): Uses two calibrated cameras to find and match points between images for distance estimation. Less precise than other methods. Not reliable without textured surfaces.
    • Time of Flight: Measures the time it takes for light pulses to travel to an object and back. High resolution and precision, but primarily an indoor technology.
    • Structured Light: Projects a pattern of light onto a scene, and analyses the resulting distortion to determine depth. Fast and precise, but mostly used indoors.
    • Light Field: Passive system that tracks the direction of light. Detects light variation. Works indoors and outdoors, but sensitivity to specific light variations is a factor.

What is a ToF Camera?

  • Provides intensity and range data simultaneously for every pixel.
  • One IR emitter and one detector.
  • Estimation of distance by measuring the time taken for a light pulse to reach a target and return.
  • Advantages: Direct measurement of time of flight, limited background illumination influence, and collinear emitter/detector directions.
  • Disadvantages: Requires high accuracy, susceptible to light scattering, and challenges with pulse generation.

ToF Principles - Continuous Wave Modulation

  • Advantages: Can use various light sources, has different modulation techniques, and provides simultaneous range and amplitude images.
  • Disadvantages: Long integration time, results in low frame rate and motion blur.

Kinect

  • Projects a pseudo-random IR light pattern into a scene.
  • The CMOS IR camera captures the distortion of the pattern to create a 3D map.
  • Different speckle sizes correspond to different distance regions.

ToF vs Kinect

  • ToF:
    • Outdoor/indoor capability
    • Greater depth range (up to 30m extendable)
    • Millimeter (mm) depth accuracy
    • Higher resolution (200x200 pixels)
    • Pulsed/continuous wave modulation
    • Onboard FPGA for phase and intensity measurement
    • Industrial market
    • Higher price (3000€)
  • Kinect V1:
    • Indoor use
    • Shorted depth range (3.5m)
    • Centimeter (cm) depth accuracy
    • Lower resolution (640x480 pixels)
    • Triangulation method
    • High computation cost (parallel processor)
    • Targeting video games market
    • Lower price (150€)

Light Field History

  • 1991: Adelson and Bergen introduce the plenoptic function.
  • 1996: Levoy and Hanrahan discuss the light field function.
  • 2005: Wilburn creates gantry cameras.

Comparison with Other 3D Technologies

  • Summarizes comparison of Time of Flight, Stereovision, Structured Light, and Light Field techniques across various aspects like resolution, precision, performance, computation complexity, and data format.

Lytro Camera

  • Light field images capture light information, including intensity and direction of light source.
  • Inserts micro-lens array between the sensor and lens for light field capture.

Calibration: Internal & External Parameters

  • Internal parameters: focal length, projection of the optical center in the image plane.
  • External parameters: translation, rotation information and camera orientation in space.

Internal Parameters

  • Understanding internal parameters allows associating a scene point with its corresponding image point.

Structure from Stereo

  • Stereo vision systems generate two images of a scene from different viewpoints.
  • Disparity measures the difference in projected positions of a 3D point in left and right images.
  • Depth is derived from disparity, especially when the cameras are parallel.

Epipolar Geometry

  • Key concept in stereo vision systems.
  • Epipolar lines and points are important for effectively searching for corresponding points in image pairs.

Structure from Motion

  • Decomposes relative object motion into rotational and translational components.
  • Assumes small rotations, small view angles and small translation along the optical axis compared to object-camera distance.
  • Computes simplified equations for calculating 2D/3D motion and depth.

2D/3D Planar Facet Equations

  • Simplified 2D/3D equations for planar facets (planar surface, plane), a crucial step for efficient calculations.

(auto) Stereoscopic Visualization

  • Methods for display of 3D images to human eyes (glasses or glasses-free techniques).
