Abstract
In this paper, we address the following problem: given a camera moving in an unknown environment, where the camera motion is known, we want to build a 3D map of the environment. The technique we propose is two-stage: (1) bootstrapping: 2D tokens are tracked using an order 1 dynamic model for their evolution; (2) steady-state: 3D fusion of 2D tokens is performed recursively, then the value predicted at time t for these 3D tokens is projected at time t + 1 onto the camera focal plane and replaces the dynamic model used in the bootstrapping mode. This allows for introducing 3D information into the 2D token tracker without prior knowledge of the environment. Uncertainties are taken into account through extended Kalman filtering. 2D and 3D token parameters are chosen such as to simplify the linearization process and to ensure numerical stability.
