Introduction to 3D Computer Vision

This chapter introduces some basic concepts and ideas of computer vision, such as imaging geometry of cameras, single view geometry, and two-view geometry. In particular, the chapter presents two practical examples. One is on single view metrology, calibration, and reconstruction; the other is a hybrid method for reconstruction of structured scenes from two uncalibrated images.
