Resumo:
In the television casting of sports events, it has become very common to insert synthetic elements to the images in real time, such as adds, marks on the field, etc. Usually, this insertion is made using special cameras, previously calibrated and provided with features that record their movements and parameter changes. With such information, inserting new objects to the scene with the adequate projection is a simple task. In the present work, we will introduce an algorithm to retrieve, in real time and using no additional information, the position and parameters of the camera in a sequence of images containing the visualization of previously-known models. For such, the method explores the existence in these images of straight-line segments that compose the visualization of the model whose positions are known in the three-dimensional world. In the case of a soccer match, for example, the respective model is composed by the set of field lines determined by the rules that define their geometry and dimensions. Firstly, methods are developed to extract long straight- line segments from the first image. Then an image of the model is located in the set formed by such segments based on an interpretation tree. With such information, the segments that compose the visualization of the model are readjusted, resulting in the obtainment of interest points which are then passed to a proceeding able to locate the camera responsible for the model`s visualization. For the second image on, only a part of the algorithm is used, taking into account the coherence between the frames, with the purpose of improving performance to allow real-time processing. Among several applications that can be employed to evaluate the performance and quality of the proposed method, there is one that captures images with a camera to show the on-line functioning of the algorithm. By using image capture, we can test the algorithm in a great variety of instances, including different models and environments.
