Homography
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Homography is a concept in the mathematical science of geometry. It is defined as a relation between two figures, such that to any point in one figure corresponds one and only one point in the other, and vise versa.
[edit] Computer Vision Applications
In the field of Computer Vision, a homography is defined in 2 dimensional space as a mapping between a point on a ground plane from as seen from one camera, to the same point on the ground plane as seen from a second camera. This has many practical applications, most notably it provides a method for compositing 2D or 3D objects into an image or video with the correct pose.
