Abstract

There is provided a method of matching features depicted in images, comprising: detecting a first object depicted in a first image, projecting a first epipolar line, from the first object of the first image, to a second image, selecting second objects along the first epipolar line of the second image, projecting second epipolar lines, from the second objects of the second image, to a third image, projecting a third epipolar line from the first object of the first image to the third image, identifying on the third image, a third object along an intersection of the third epipolar line and a certain second epipolar line of the second epipolar lines, and generating an indication of the first object depicted in first image and the third object depicted in the third image as matches of a same physical object.
