ABSTRACT
Whenever there is photogrammetry or computer vision, image processing techniques take place; since both of sciences depend on extract information from an image. Moreover, it is essential to apply these image processing techniques to obtain the depth information of the scene objects and then construct their 3D view. Researchers have been working in the stereovision technique to reconstruct a 3D object with different approaches, some were for specific applications, and others were improvements in the method itself.
In this paper, an enhanced stereo imaging technique is proposed to increase the accuracy in the 3D object construction. Starting from the image acquisition to the rectification process, then passing through stereo matcher between the two stereo images to produce a robust disparity map which is put into a refinement process for improvements. Finally, the depth view is constructed with a superior accuracy in comparison to the commonly applied stereo imaging approaches.
