Abstract
Aspects disclosed herein provide methods, systems, and devices for 3D image capture based on a Structure from Motion (SFM) imaging technique with simplified pose detection. The present disclosure provides a straightforward method to directly track a camera's motion (pose detection) thereby removing a substantial portion of the computing load needed to build a dimensionally accurate 3D model from a sequence of images taken by the camera.
