Abstract:

The ability to map fluid velocity fields in three-dimensions would provide researchers with a much greater understanding of a wide variety of flows. To date, there is no such systems that can do this reliably for a wide variety of flow parameters. For that purpose, some researchers have developed methods using a single camera I or several cameras generally 3 or 4 using the epipolar 2, 3, 4, 5.
