Abstract

The aim of this study is to propose a 3-dimension reconstruction method of small-scale scenes improved by a new image acquisition method for quantitative measurements. A stereovision system is used to acquire images in order to obtain several shots of an object, at regular intervals according to a predefined trajectory. A complete methodology of 3D reconstruction is exposed to perform a dense 3D model with texture mapping. A first result on natural images collected with the stereovision system during sea trials has been obtained.
