  • Geoaccurate three-dimensional reconstruction via image-based geometry
    Patent number: 9466143
    Abstract: A technique for generating a three-dimensional reconstruction of a scene involves generating a high-fidelity point cloud representing a three-dimensional reconstruction of a scene from two-dimensional images generated by at least one sensor whose position and orientation are known relative to a fixed coordinate system for each of the images. The high-fidelity point cloud is generated in a relative coordinate system without regard to the position and orientation of the sensor(s). A low-fidelity point cloud is generated in the fixed coordinate system from the two-dimensional images using the position and orientation of the sensor(s) relative to the fixed coordinate system.
