Perspective-1-Ellipsoid: Formulation, Analysis and Solutions of the Camera Pose Estimation Problem from One Ellipse-Ellipsoid Correspondence
The paper introduces a theoretical framework to solve the Perspective-1-Ellipsoid (P1E) problem, which estimates camera pose from matching one ellipse to an ellipsoid. This method reduces the 6DoF pose estimation problem to a 1 Degree of Freedom (1DoF) problem, allowing for closed-form analytical solutions based on the ellipsoid's shape.
