Measurement of Rock Joint Surfaces by Using Smartphone Structure from Motion (SfM) Photogrammetry [PDF]
The measurement of rock joint surfaces is essential for the estimation of the shear strength of the rock discontinuities in rock engineering. Commonly used techniques for the acquisition of the morphology of the surfaces, such as profilometers and laser ...

Microscopic Structure from Motion (SfM) for Microscale 3D Surface Reconstruction [PDF]
In microscale photogrammetry, the confocal microscopic imaging technique has been the dominant trend. Unlike the confocal imaging mostly for transparent objects, we propose a novel method to construct a 3D shape in microscale for various micro-sized ...

On-Barn Pig Weight Estimation Based on Body Measurements by Structure-from-Motion (SfM). [PDF]
Information on the body shape of pigs is a key indicator to monitor their performance and health and to control or predict their market weight. Manual measurements are among the most common ways to obtain an indication of animal growth. However, this approach is laborious and difficult, and it may be stressful for both the pigs and the stockman.

SfM with MRFs: Discrete-Continuous Optimization for Large-Scale Structure from Motion [PDF]
Recent work in structure from motion (SfM) has built 3D models from large collections of images downloaded from the Internet. Many approaches to this problem use incremental algorithms that solve progressively larger bundle adjustment problems. These incremental techniques scale poorly as the image collection grows, and can suffer from drift or local ...

Dense-SfM: Structure from Motion with Dense Consistent Matching
We present Dense-SfM, a novel Structure from Motion (SfM) framework designed for dense and accurate 3D reconstruction from multi-view images. Sparse keypoint matching, which traditional SfM methods often rely on, limits both accuracy and point density, especially in texture-less areas.

Abstract Structure from Motion (SfM) represents a good low-cost alternative to generate high resolution topography where LiDAR (Light Detection and Ranging) data is scarce or unaffordable. In this work, we demonstrate the advantages of high resolution elevation models (DEM) obtained using the SfM technique to delineate catchment boundaries and the ...

Forest structural parameters are key indicators for forest growth assessment, and play a critical role in forest resources monitoring and ecosystem management. Terrestrial laser scanning (TLS) can obtain three-dimensional (3D) forest structures with ultra-high precision without destruction, whereas some shortcomings such as non-portability and cost ...

Dynamics of visual reversals from ambiguous spinning biological-motion and rigid structure-from-motion [PDF]
Three-dimensional rigid structure-from-motion (SFM) and structure from nonrigid biological point-light motion stimuli are perceptually ambiguous. This study investigated the dynamics of perceived reversals in two cases: a spinning point-light walker (PLW)

A Comparative Analysis of Unmanned Aircraft Systems in Low Altitude Photogrammetric Surveys
Comparing photogrammetric performances of four user-grade unmanned aircraft systems (UAS) is the main aim of this paper. This study investigates what is the more suitable UAS for specific applications considering the required scale factor, such as for ...
