Feature-Based Three-Dimensional Registration for Repetitive Geometry in Machine Vision

Yuanzheng Gong and Eric J Seibel

As an important step in three-dimensional (3D) machine vision, 3D registration is a process of aligning two or multiple 3D point clouds that are collected from different perspectives together into a complete one. The most popular approach to register point clouds is to minimize the difference between these point clouds iteratively by Iterative Closest Point (ICP) algorithm. However, ICP does not work well for repetitive geometries. To solve this problem, a feature-based 3D registration algorithm is proposed to align the point clouds that are generated by vision-based 3D reconstruction. By utilizing texture information of the object and the robustness of image features, 3D correspondences can be retrieved so that the 3D registration of two point clouds is to solve a rigid transformation. The comparison of our method and different ICP algorithms demonstrates that our proposed algorithm is more accurate, efficient and robust for repetitive geometry registration. Moreover, this method can also be used to solve high depth uncertainty problem caused by little camera baseline in vision-based 3D reconstruction.
