Im new in the Computer Vision field, so I'm learning from scratch how to generate point clouds from multiple image captures. I'm not implementing any of this on code yet, first I want to learn how this whole process should be done and then I'll code it.
So far I've learned about features detection algorithms , mostly SIFT and the remarkably more accurate A-KAZE, which detects much more features on each image and thus generates more dense clouds.
Then there comes the key matching algorithms, mainly Brute Force (BF) and FLANN. Finally it should be a process in which you: -first: get all the cameras orientation -finally : generate the sparse point cloud.
But, until now , I've only found examples in OpenCV in which only two images are matched and their matched features are drawn. Im not able to find any example in which more images are matched and , more importantly, Im not able to find out how to find camera's orientation and to generate point clouds on OpenCV. Please, I need some help on those last stages. If you find any example of multiple image matching, point cloud generation it would be very helpfull . Thanks in advance!
