Abstract(in English) Since 3D information is useful for spatial recognition, the technologies for acquiring and presenting 3D information are rapidly spreading in various fields. 3D information sensing methods using laser beams and multi-view image groups are known, however, these methods require large-scale equipment and observation systems. Catadioptric imaging systems using a curved mirror can observe a large space at a time. In this paper, we propose a method to acquire a wide range of 3D information with a compact device by estimating the depth of the observation space from a monocular image based on a catadioptric imaging system consisting of an omnidirectional camera and a spherical mirror. The effectiveness of the proposed method was confirmed through an experiment using an image taken in a CG environment.
