Stereo reconstruction using OpenCV 3.4.4 and python 3.4

This Repository contains 2 scripts in two folders.

The first folder called "Calibration" contains the script called calibrate.py

Usage for this script is:

$python calibrate.py

This script iteratively reads the pictures contained in the folder calibration_images and calculates the intrinsic parameters of the camera used to take those pictures.

These parameters are saved as a numpy array in the folder camera_params.

The second folder called "Reconstruction" contains the script called disparity.py

This script opens a pair of images from the folder "reconstruct_this" and generates a point cloud (.ply file).

Usage for this script is:

$python disparity.py
