TSBB33 3D Computer Vision

This course covers the algorithms and estimation problems used to infer 3D structure from images. The course covers both the mathematics used, and how these are put into practice in algorithm implementation. The course features two computer labs, and a 3hp project where groups of participants together will implement a structure from motion system. The project is presented both in written form and orally at a seminar. The course ends with a written exam on the theoretical content.

New course! This course will run for the first time in spring 2023. It is based on the geometry and multi-view stereo parts of the course TSBB15 Computer Vision.

3D reconstruction project

Half the course consists of a 3D reconstruction project. The project starts on April 27, and ends with a final seminar on May 23. The project builds on top of the two computer exercises.
