The constraint that rigid motion places on the image positions of points and lines over three views is captured by the trifocal tensor. This paper demonstrates a novel robust estimator of the trifocal tensor, based on a minimum number of correspondences across an image triplet. In addition, it is shown how the robust estimate can be used to find a minimal parameterization that enforces the constraints between the elements of the tensor. The matching techniques used to estimate the tensor are both robust (detecting and discarding mismatches) and fully automatic. Results are given for real image sequences. 1, |
