Three dimensional measurement using fisheye stereo vision

In this paper, we describe on a method for a three dimensional measurement of omni-directional space of camera view, using a fisheye stereo vision. In the method, the correction image is made from fisheye image. Three dimensional data of a moving object is calculated, using a parallax detected by template matching in the correction image. An ellipse as a geometrical model is calculated, using a plane coordinate on the object in real space. And a volume of the object is detected using the detected height and the ellipse. In the paper, composition of an experimental system and the measurement method are explained, and the experimental result is shown.
