6.801 Machine Vision (Fall 2020, MIT OCW): Lecture 22 - Exterior Orientation, Recovering Position and Orientation, Bundle Adjustment, Object Shape

6.801 Machine Vision

6.801 Machine Vision (Fall 2020, MIT OCW). Instructor: Prof. Berthold Horn. This course is an introduction to the process of generating a symbolic description of the environment from an image. It covers the physics of image formation, image analysis, binary image processing, and filtering. Machine vision has applications in robotics and the intelligent interaction of machines with their environment. Students taking the graduate version complete additional assignments.

Lecture 22 - Exterior Orientation, Recovering Position and Orientation, Bundle Adjustment ...

Instructor: Prof. Berthold Horn. Today, we focus on combining exterior orientation with other photogrammetry techniques for recovering position and orientation, solving the bundle adjustment problem, and determining optimal representations for object shape.
