REAL-TIME DEPTH MAP ESTIMATION FROM INFRARED STEREO IMAGES OF RGB-D CAMERAS

RGB-D cameras are novel sensing systems that can rapidly provide accurate depth information for 3D perception, among which the type based on active stereo vision has been widely used. However, there are some problems exiting in use, such as the short measurement range and incomplete depth maps. This...
