Local Shape from Mirror Reflections
2005
International Journal of Computer Vision
Preserved Fulltext
We study the problem of recovering the 3D shape of an unknown smooth specular surface from a single image. The surface reflects a calibrated pattern onto the image plane of a calibrated camera. ...
Information equivalent to scale and orientation measurements can be also extracted from the reflection of a planar scene patch of arbitrary geometry, provided that the reflections of (at least) 3 distinctive ...
We use this relationship to estimate the local shape of the mirror surface. ...
