Structure from motion (SfM) refers to the process of estimating three-dimensional structures from two-dimensional image sequences which may be coupled with local motion signals. It is studied in the fields of computer vision and visual perception. In biological vision, SfM refers to the phenomenon by which humans (and other animals) can recover 3-D structure from the projected 2D (retinal) motion field of a moving object or scene.
