Design of the operation of a rotating machine for the acquisition of multi-view stereoscopic images for the 3D reconstruction of objects

Abstract

This work presents a machine to locate a stereoscopic camera in different positions around an object to acquire a sequence of images that allows the reconstruction of such object through artificial vision algorithms. The GEMMA guide was used to define the modes of operation of the proposed machine. In addition, the mechanical and electronic elements that make up the machine and the programming logic for its control with PLC were also defined. It was demonstrated using a graphical interface that the mode of operation of the machine is carried out satisfactorily. Additionally, this work presents synthetic image results to represent a sequence of images acquired from different points of view considering different levels of elevation of the camera, showing the type of results obtained with the proposed machine.
