I am interested in computing optical flow between images that are not part of a video sequence using the built-in MATLAB function estimateFlow. That is, I would like to compute optical flow between two images in my workspace, Img1 and Img2. How can I do this?
Currently, I am combining the images into an array and running a for loop to obtain the optical flow:
ImgStack(:,:,1) = Img1; % combine the images to a sequence
ImgStack(:,:,2) = Img2;reset(opticFlow); % clear previous optical flow
opticFlow = opticalFlowLKDoG; % At this point, I don't realy care what method is used
for t = 1:2 flow = estimateFlow(opticFlow,ImgStack(:,:,t));end
This procedure is inelegant and quite cumbersome. I am doing this on a large number of images and I would like a more efficient way to do this. It would be nice if I could just do something like flow = estimateFlow(opticFlow,[Img1,Img2]).
Dose anyone know how to do this?
