Abstract

See full text

A computer-implemented stereo image processing method which uses contours is described. In an embodiment, contours are extracted from two silhouette images captured at substantially the same time by a stereo camera of at least part of an object in a scene. Stereo correspondences between contour points on corresponding scanlines in the two contour images (one corresponding to each silhouette image in the stereo pair) are calculated on the basis of contour point comparison metrics, such as the compatibility of the normal of the contours and/or a distance along the scanline between the point and a centroid of the contour. A corresponding system is also described.
