Notes:
Many vision tasks such as 3D measurement, scene reconstruction, object recognition, etc.,rely on feature correspondence among images. This paper presents a point matching method for 3Dsurface measurement. The procedure of the method is as follows: (1) rectification for stereo imagepairs; (2) computation of epipolar lines; (3) sequential matching in vertical direction; (4) sequentialmatching in horizontal direction. The fourth step is performed to deal with the ambiguity in denseareas where points have closer vertical coordinates. In the fourth step a threshold limit of verticalcoordinate difference is designed to determine those points potential to cause ambiguity. This methodwas applied to the 3D surface measurement for an inflatable parabolic reflector with validity of pointmatching up to 100%. Experiment results show that this method is feasible in application of sparsepoint matching for continuous surface measurements
