Estimating objects proper motion using optical flow, kinematics and depth information
Abstract:
The invention relates to a method for detecting the proper motion of an real-world object, comprising the steps of acquiring, by an image capturing device (ICD), a first image (I1) of the object at a first point in time (t1) and a second image (I2) at a second point in time (t2); obtaining a third (hypothetical) image (I3), based on an estimated effect of the motion of the image capturing device (ICD) itself (EMF) between the first and the second point in time (t1, t2), wherein the effect of the motion of the image capturing device (ICD) itself is estimated based on the forward kinematics of the image capturing device; determining an optical flow (OF) between the second image (I2) and the third image (I3); and evaluating the optical flow (OF) by incorporating uncertainties of the optical flow (OF) and the ego-motion-flow (EMF) in order to determine the proper motion of the object.
