Abstract
An apparatus includes one or more processors and logic encoded in one or more non-transitory media for execution by the one or more processors and when executed operable to receive images from a set of cameras that are positioned in a plurality of levels around one or more objects, wherein the set of cameras are positioned at a same orientation and each image is captured by a rolling shutter and associated with a position and orientation of a corresponding camera from the set of cameras. The logic is further operable to, for each level of cameras generate a three-dimensional pointcloud based on the position and orientation of corresponding cameras and matched extracted features. The logic is further operable to merge the three-dimensional pointcloud for each level of the cameras to form a three-dimensional volumetric model of one or more objects.
