  • Abstract
    In this paper we present an algorithm for estimating the egomotion of a video camera rigidly mounted on a motorcycle. In particular, we first present a simple, yet accurate model of a motorcycle; we then show how this model can be integrated through time to obtain the egomotion of the camera. Finally, considering that the integration of the model requires precise measurements of the roll angle of the motorcycle, we present a robust algorithm for estimating the roll angle from a given sequence of images.
