Abstract
Various types of three-dimensional (3D) cameras have been used to analyze real-world objects or environments effectively. However, because most existing 3D cameras capture scenes by statically using one type of camera, there may be a limit to the quality of the captured images. Therefore, in this paper, we build a hybrid camera system that combines passive triangulation (PT)- and active triangulation (AT)-based cameras and suggest a new mechanism of estimating accurate 3D depth by adaptively switching between the two types of cameras depending on the complexity of the environment. The suggested method initially uses initial input images to extract brightness and texture, which are major features representing the current state of the surrounding environment. The method subsequently generates a set of rules that dynamically select the PT- or AT-based camera, whichever can operate more suitably in the current environment, by analyzing the two extracted features. In experimental results, we demonstrate that the proposed adaptive camera-selection approach can be applied to extract 3D depth reliably with reasonable performance in terms of accuracy and time.
