Incremental Dense Reconstruction from Sparse 3D Points with an Integrated Level-of-Detail Concept

Progressive 3D Modeling All the Way

“…Roters et al [11] presented an incremental MVS algorithm which progressively refines an existing point cloud by interpolating points in the centers of the existing triangles. Similarly to HPMVS, the algorithm cannot handle additional information and/or changes in the underlying 3D model.…”

FestGPU: a framework for fast robust estimation on GPU

“…Feature detectors [25] and matching algorithms [7] show a certain amount of speedup. In dense 3Dreconstruction systems [21] GPU implementations are used to speed up the feature matching and triangulation. Even large non-linear optimization problems, for instance bundle adjustment [29], have been implemented on the graphics device.…”
