The paper describes the experimental procedure used to produce a computor contour plot of the wave height distributions and wave directions in a model basin, using photogrammetric techniques. Only monochromatic waves are analysed. A technique is outlined to simulate and measure waves entering a basin of infinite extent, in other words to photograph the penetration of a wave train into a harbour basin before the pattern has been contaminated by reflections. Proof is offered that this infinite basin technique is a valid representation of the steady state situation of a continuous wave train entering an infinite basin.

The wave is an important hydrological element in marine research. Accurately describing the characteristics of waves is therefore significant to the study of marine power. The contents of this article are as follows: (1) a wave height measurement system using binocular cameras is proposed, and the small tank experiments are conducted to prove the efficacy of the proposed system; (2) based on the scale invariant feature transition (SIFT) algorithm, sub-pixel Harris corners are calculated in the difference-of-Gaussian (DOG) space to locate key points more accurately; and (3) a bi-directional epipolar constraint is employed to decrease the mismatch rate and computation time.
