The 3D reconstruction problem from a single view of an object and its image reflected by a mirror plane is addressed in this paper. It is shown that the object and its mirror counterpart constitute a bilateral symmetric structure, in which correspondences are related by a harmonic homology associated with the mirror plane and the plane normal in 3D space. A novel method utilizing the profile as well as features of the object is proposed to determine the images of the plane normal and point correspondences. Once they are recovered, 3D reconstruction can be computed using general stereo vision technique. Experiment with real image is given to demonstrate the performance of the proposed method.
