  • Patent number: 10580206
    Abstract: The present disclosure discloses a method and apparatus for constructing a three-dimensional map. A specific embodiment of the method includes: acquiring multiple frames of a monocular image containing a target object collected by a monocular camera, and constructing a three-dimensional map containing the target object and other objects in the monocular image based on the monocular image; determining an absolute scale of the target object, and determining a ratio of a relative scale corresponding to the target object to the absolute scale; and adjusting a scale of each object in the three-dimensional map to obtain a three-dimensional map meeting a preset condition based on the ratio. The method and apparatus provided by the present disclosure achieves the construction of a world coordinate system with absolute scales in a three-dimensional map constructed based on a monocular image.

  • Patent number: 10410315
    Abstract: A method and apparatus for generating image information. A specific embodiment of the method includes: acquiring a rotation angle and a scaling of a target image relative to a reference image, and acquiring an intrinsic parameter of a video camera collecting the reference image; generating a projective transformation matrix based on the rotation angle, the scaling and the intrinsic parameter; generating a coordinate offset of the each neighborhood pixel of the feature point in the reference image; generating, based on a coordinate of the feature point in the reference image, the coordinate offset of the each neighborhood pixel of the feature point in the reference image and the projective transformation matrix, coordinates of the each neighborhood pixel of the feature point in the reference image; and generating a feature point descriptor of the feature point.
