A survey paper on 3D reconstruction of underwater coral reef images

The research work here describes the 3D reconstruction work of coral reef images using the Epipolar Geometry. Here utilizing a multi-see camera framework comprising of 3 indistinguishable waterproof cameras showed on a stereo-base, and gathered film of the ocean bottom in direct transects. To build up a 3D-portrayal of the ocean bottom picture sets were initially separated from the video film physically. At that point relating focuses are naturally separated from the stereo-matches by the notable SURF calculation. In light of the resultant x, y, z point cloud the 3D appearance of the coral reef is approximated by Epipolar strategy using Gradient Field.
