Enhancement of 3-D reconstruction from 2-D images using single camera

This paper presents an enhancement technique for 3-D image reconstruction from two 2-D images obtained from single CCD rotation camera. This technique eliminates the effects of non-symmetrical in the camera. The 3-D image reconstruction employs a conventional stereo technique in which the first image is used as a reference. In addition, this paper presents a novel technique for searching the same position in two images using new normalized sum of squared difference (NSSD-New), which gives less position error as compared with existing techniques. Experimental results demonstrate superiority of our approach in 3-D image reconstruction in comparison with the other techniques.
