Abstract:

Aiming at the problems of large measurement error, single image information, and poor real-time performance in binocular vision ranging, a binocular ranging method based on ORB (oriented fast and rotated brief) features is proposed. Median filtering is performed on the video frame, the ORB feature of the image is extracted, and the Hamming distance with the best matching effect is selected through experiments. The RANSAC (random sample consensus) model estimation is performed on the selected matching points, the mismatches are removed, the model relationship between parallax and true distance is analyzed, the optimal ranging model is constructed and verified on the experimental platform. The results show that the proposed method has the advantages of accurate ranging, fast running speed and strong robustness compared with other binocular ranging methods, and can display the distance information of the features in the image in real time.

Key words: oriented fast and rotated brief(ORB), feature matching, random sample consensus(RANSAC), model optimization, binocular ranging
