A novel model for simultaneous estimation of full 3D motion and 3D position in world coordinates from multi camera sequences is presented. To this end scene flow [29 ]and disparity are estimated in a single estimation step. The key idea is to interpret sequences of 2 or more cameras as one 4D data set. In this 4D space a given motion model, a camera model and a brightness change model are combined into a brightness change constraint equation (BCCE)combining changes due to object motion and different camera positions.The estimation of parameters in this constraint equation is demonstrated using a weighted total least squares estimator called structure tensor. An evaluation of systematic errors and noise stability for a 5 camera setup is shown as well as results on synthetic sequences with ground truth and data acquired under controlled laboratory conditions.
