The lecture introduces the basic concepts of image formation - perspective projection and camera motion. The goal is to reconstruct the three-dimensional world and the camera motion from multiple images. To this end, one determines correspondences between points in various images and respective constraints that allow to compute motion and 3D structure. A particular emphasis of the lecture is on mathematical descriptions of rigid body motion and of perspective projection. For estimating camera motion and 3D geometry we will make use of both spectral methods and methods of nonlinear optimization.

We will hold a lecture for knowledge review at the end of July (highlighting knowledge important for our exam). The review scope will be narrowed down. Accordingly, we tentatively do not allow the cheat sheet in our exam.

Summer Semester Exam
Our exam will tentatively take place on 04 August from 8:00 am to 10:00 am.
Registration for our exam is possible between 22 May and 30 June.
Deadline for grading of exams: 06 September 2023.

Winter Semester Exam (Repeat Exam)
The exam dates and locations are determined centrally by the Department of Studies. It will take a while until the dates are visible to us.
We will provide any update in time.
