A Parallel Implementation of a Structure-from-Motion Algorithm

Abstract

This paper describes the implementation of a 3D vision algorithm, Droid, on the Oxford parallel vision architecture, PARADOX, and the results of experiments to gauge the algorithm's effectiveness in providing navigation data for an autonomous guided vehicle. The algorithm reconstructs 3D structure by analysing image sequences obtained from a moving camera. In this application, the architecture delivers a performance of greater than 1 frame per second — 17 times the performance of a Sun-4 alone.
