Update

02/19/2021: Updated project solution to CUDA11.2 and OpenCV4.5.1

03/18/2020: Link to convert disparity to depth for the dataset below (equidistant model). Converter-MATLAB. Needs .flo reader.

03/18/2020: Added sample function in main.cpp to use the dataset below (equidistant model). I didn't check if the output folder exist, so create a folder "output" in the main folder of the dataset.

03/18/2020: Added link for MATLAB scipts generating the vector fields KB model, Equidistant model. Needs .flo writer.

02/06/2020: Added 2D disparity to 3D and depth (radial) conversion. copyStereoToHost now requires the intrinsic camera parameters and distortion model coefficients (Kanala-Brandt model).

Requirements

1. OpenCV, OpenCV Contrib (optflow) (tested with v4.5.1)
2. CUDA 11.2 (Including Samples for headers)
3. Visual Studio 2019
4. Trajectory and Calibration Fields (in .flo format) of the T265 sensor (included). However if you want to use your own T265, use this MATLAB script to generate them: MATLAB. Needs .flo writer.

Building Instructions

The solution consists of two projects - stereotgv and test_vfs. stereotgv generates a static library from which test_vfs links. test_vfs generates a Win32 .exe file.

There is a lib_link.h header (for both project) that links the necessary libraries. Modify the directories:

#define LIB_PATH "D:/dev/lib64/"
#define CV_LIB_PATH "D:/dev/lib64/"
#define CUDA_LIB_PATH "C:/Program Files/NVIDIA GPU Computing Toolkit/CUDA/v10.1/lib/x64/"

to point to the location of OpenCV (CV_LIB_PATH) and CUDA (CUDA_LIB_PATH) .lib files.

At the same time, modify the Project Properties -> VC++ Directories -> (Executables, Includes, and Libraries) to point to the location of the OpenCV and CUDA builds, too.

Executable: D:/dev/bin
Includes: D:/dev/include
Libraries: D:/dev/lib64

Dataset

Real Dataset (144 image pairs with groundtruth depth): Dataset

The model used in this dataset (equidistant model) is different from the implemented code above and therefore will have a different trajectory and calibration field, which are provided for each image pairs. (TODO: sample code for using the dataset).

Folder Structure:

• calib - intrinsic camera matrix K, and transformation R, t between first->second image frames in OpenCV format .xml
• image_02/data - first RGB image frame
• image_03/data - second RGB image frame
• proj_depth/groundtrutn - contains groundtruth depth for image_02
• calibrationVector - calibration vector in .flo format
• translationVector - trajectory field in .flo format
• result_ours - our results for easy comparison (with visualization of disparity error)
