Abstract

Rectangular shapes in observed scenes are transformed to quadrilaterals in resulting images due to perspective distortion. If the aspect ratio of the original rectangle is known, the associated homography can be computed directly and used for perspective correction. However, in camera document scanning applications, the aspect ratio of the imaged rectangle is unknown. In this work, a homography estimation method appropriate for document scanning applications is given. This method does not require a priori knowledge of the aspect ratio of the imaged rectangle nor a calibrated camera. The computational implementation is evaluated experimentally.
