Resolving Scale Ambiguity Via XSlit Aspect Ratio Analysis
In perspective cameras, images of a frontal-parallel 3D object preserve its aspect ratio invariant to its depth. Such an invariance is useful in photography but is unique to perspective projection. In this paper, we show that alternative non-perspective cameras such as the crossed-slit or XSlit cameras exhibit a different depth-dependent aspect ratio (DDAR) property that can be used to 3D recovery. We first conduct a comprehensive analysis to characterize DDAR, infer object depth from its AR, and model recoverable depth range, sensitivity, and error. We show that repeated shape patterns in real Manhattan World scenes can be used for 3D reconstruction using a single XSlit image. We also extend our analysis to model slopes of lines. Specifically, parallel 3D lines exhibit depth-dependent slopes (DDS) on their images which can also be used to infer their depths. We validate our analyses using real XSlit cameras, XSlit panoramas, and catadioptric mirrors. Experiments show that DDAR and DDS provide important depth cues and enable effective single-image scene reconstruction.

Manhattan Scene Understanding via XSlit Imaging
A Manhattan World (MW) [3] is composed of planar surfaces and parallel lines aligned with three mutually orthogonal principal axes. Traditional MW understanding algorithms rely on geometry priors such as the vanishing po…

Light fields (LFs) are image-based representation that records the radiance along all rays along every direction through every point in space. Traditionally LFs are acquired by using a 2D grid of evenly spaced pinhole…
