About this title

Review

'I am very positive about this book. The authors have succeeded very well in describing the main techniques in mainstream multiple view geometry, both classical and modern, in a clear and consistent way.' Computing Reviews

'... a book which is timely, extremely thorough and commendably clear ... Overall, the approach is masterly ... The authors have managed to present the very essence of the subject in a way which the most subtle ideas seem natural and straightforward. I have never seen such a clear exploration of the geometry of vision. I would wholeheartedly recommend this book. It deserves to be in the library of every serious researcher in the field of computer vision.' Journal of Robotica

'The new edition features an extended introduction covering the key ideas in the book (which itself have been updated with additional examples and appendices) and significant new results which have appeared since the first edition. Comprehensive background material is provided, so readers familiar with linear algebra and basic numerical methods can understand the projective geometry and estimation algorithms presented, and implement the algorithms directly from the book.' Zentralblatt MATH

Book Description

Recent developments in the theory and practice of scene reconstruction are described in detail in a unified framework. The distinctive flavour is that the approach is uncalibrated. Geometric principles and their algebraic representation are covered, enabling readers to understand the projective geometry and estimation algorithms presented, and implement them directly.
