Abstract
Method for determining the position of an object point in a scene from a digital image thereof acquired through an optical system is presented. The image comprises a set of image points corresponding to object points and the position of the object points are determined by means of predetermined vectors associated with the image points. The predetermined vector represents the inverted direction of a light ray in the object space that will produce this image point through the optical system comprising all distortion effects of the optical system.
