A model based approach for rectifying the camera image of the bound document has been developed, i.e., the surface of the document is represented by a general cylindrical surface. The principle of using the model to unwrap the image is discussed. Practically, the skeleton of each horizontal text line is extracted to help estimate the parameter of the model, and rectify the images. To use the model, only a few priori is required, and no more auxiliary device is necessary. Experiment results are given to demonstrate the feasibility and the stability of the method.
