The aim of REALTIME3D, which stands for real-time 3D inspection of infrastructure using a stereo camera rig on a UAV, is to develop a REALTIME 3D inspection system with a stereo camera equipped UAV. The system will generate real-time stereoscopic 3D views in which multiple users can simultaneously visualize, inspect & measure the object.
Critical and important infrastructure elements, such as bridges, viaducts, dams, towers, powerlines and cell towers are exposed to intensive loads, material fatigue, environmental stress & aging process. All these factors cause deteriorations on the construction parts. The goal is to develop a REALTIME 3D inspection system with a stereo camera equipped UAV. The system will generate real-time stereoscopic 3D views in which multiple users can simultaneously visualize, inspect & measure the object.
A stereo camera rig as the image acquisition unit will be installed on a UAV. The stereo base length will follow the photogrammetric base-to-height ratio rules in order to get the best network geometry for stereoscopic viewing & mensuration. The UAV system will be operated on-site by an operator, while the inspection will be done simultaneously in-office by the experts/engineers through their VR headsets.
Using our innovative AR/MR software, multiple user from multiple locations can connect to the system, and visualize to Object-of-Interest in 3D stereoscopic view mode with the capability of photogrammetric measurement. REALTIME3D will provide a very rich content and visualization experience much greater than being located at the site itself.
