  • Patent number: 11830208
    Abstract: Techniques related to performing image registration are discussed. Such techniques include converting a source image region and a target image portion from a color image space to a semantic space and iteratively converging homography parameters using the source image region and target image portion in the semantic space by applying iterations with some homography parameters allowed to vary and others blocked from varying and subsequent iterations with all homography parameters allowed to vary.

  • Publication number: 20210118182
    Abstract: Methods, apparatus, systems and articles of manufacture are disclosed to show a multiple-camera calibration without an initial guess. An example method includes calculating a homography for a camera pair, the homography created using common image plane coordinate matches of identified features and identified focal lengths of cameras of the camera pair, decomposing the homography to identify relative translations, rotations, and surface normals; solving a minimization for camera centers of the cameras, and calibrating the cameras using the cameras positions and orientations.
