Rgb to depth camera

I "3d'd" some old war video,  it learns "normalization" factors off pushing out a blurred sobel filter.

It works okish sometimes.

Its only prototype, and its not very deep just yet, but i havent had the chance to code the better version,  i think this tech should go all the way.

 

It works through scale invarience, between the pixels.

Start small

You might be on to something. Suggest starting with video which is a lot less complex. As you’re aware, comparing frames (still images) of a video may certainly be used to create a 3D image, but can certainly imaging starting with a complex image might be really difficult. You might start with a cube moving against a solid background. 

Looking forward to seeing your progress.
