1-Point-based Monocular Motion Estimation for Computationally-Limited Micro Aerial Vehicles

Abstract

We propose a novel method to estimate the relative motion between two consecutive camera views, which only requires the observation of a single feature in the scene and the knowledge of the angular rates from an inertial measurement unit, under the assumption that the local camera motion lies in a plane perpendicular to the gravity vector. Using this 1- point motion parametrization, we provide two very efficient algorithms to remove the outliers of the feature-matching process. Thanks to their inherent efficiency, the proposed algorithms are very suitable for computationally-limited robots. We test the proposed approaches on both synthetic and real data, using video footage from a small flying quadrotor. We show that our methods outperform standard RANSAC-based implementations by up to two orders of magnitude in speed, while being able to identify the majority of the inliers.
