**Note** The lecture plan as posted at the start of semester is last
year's schedule. There will not be any revolutionary changes, but
it will be reviewed and amended as we go along.
# Chapter 1-3. Introduction; 3D geometry and projections
**Dates** 21, 24, 28, and 31 August, and 4 and 7 September
| # | Session Notes | Reading | Keywords | Status |
|---|---------------|-------------------|-----------------------------|-----|
| 1 | [Introduction]() | Ma 2004:Ch 1 (Ch 2.1 and 2.3) | Practical matters. Software installation. Recap of linear algebra. | OK |
| 2 | [3D Modelling]() | Ma 2004:Ch 2, App A (SZ 2) | 3D modelling, motion | OK |
| 3 | [3D Objects in Python]() | Tutorials | Homogeneous co-ordinates. General Rotations. 3D Transformations in Python | OK |
| 4 | [Image Formation]() | Ma 2004:Ch 3-3.3.1 (SZ 6) | (self-study) projection, lens/camera | |
| 5 | [Camera Calibration]() | Ma 2004:Ch 3.3-3.3.3 | (self-study) Calibration, Radial Distortion etc. |
| 6 | [Three-week Recap]() | Ma 2004:Ch 1-3 | 3D Motion and 2D Projections | To be adapted to class need|
| 7 | Recap: [Camera Calibration]() | Ma 2004:Ch 3 | | Many students needed more time to get the calibration to work. |
**Note** It could have been useful to do a session on Theorem 2.8, training proof
reading skills.
# Chapter 4. Feature Tracking
We need to interleave this with material from later blocks to have
project tracker run over midterm.
[Study Technique]() may be a good candidate.

| 21 | [Planar Scenes]()| Ma 2004:Ch 5.3 | |
| 22 | [Epipolar Geometry]()| Ma 2004:Ch 5.1-3 | |
1. [Study Technique]() should may be needed earlier. We introduced some
fragments of this in 2022, but should possibly do more of it.
3. [Relative Pose]() is a little messy. It covers two things.
- triangulation is poorly covered in the textbook and the notes,
but the students need a recap from basic calculus
- the essential matrix is preparation for the next session.
4. Generally, the preliminary steps of the exploratory exercises should
have been premade, to save time for the students.
We have made some improvements in 2022, but we should do more.
5. Algorithm implementation is difficult and require sample solutions.
Some have been added in 2022, but may have to be incorporated earlier
in the course.
6. We need more examples with complete calculations
