Abstract
A system for reducing a search area for identifying correspondences identifies an overlap region within a first match frame captured by a match camera. The overlap region includes one or more points of the first match frame that are associated with one or more same portions of an environment as one or more corresponding points of a first reference frame captured by a reference camera. The system obtains a second reference frame captured by the reference camera and a second match frame captured by the match camera. The system identifies a reference camera transformation matrix, and/or a match camera transformation matrix. The system defines a search area within the second match frame based on the overlap region and the reference camera transformation matrix and/or the match camera transformation matrix.
