  • Patent number: 12784334
    Abstract: This invention discloses a wave field reconstruction method via optical perception, including: (1) building a data platform for a virtual wave field; (2) pre-training a domain converter module using color image data of the virtual wave field and real water surface image data captured by a camera; (3) pre-training a depth estimation module using generated paired color image data and depth image data of the virtual wave field; (4) converting the style of a real water surface image into a virtual-water-surface-style image via the domain converter module; (5) outputting the virtual-water-surface-style image as a depth image with the same style and recording the distance between a wave surface sampling point and the camera's optical center; and (6) generating surface point cloud data of a water surface wave field with the camera's optical center as the coordinate origin. The method enables real-time, robust wave field depth reconstruction, ensuring reliability and authenticity.
