Enhanced Photometric Stereo with Multispectral Images

چکیده
We introduce a technique based on multispectral images aimed at improving Lambertian photometric stereo. Many photometric stereo algorithms assume Lambertian reflectance, but deviations from this ideal produce errors in shape reconstruction. To alleviate this problem, we exploit the wavelength-dependence of material reflectance. Based on the observation that reflectance at certain wavelengths for a given object is more Lambertian than at others, we propose a method for identifying such wavelengths by a matrix rank analysis, and use them to achieve more accurate photometric stereo. We merge reconstruction results from different wavelengths to produce the final surface normal map. Experimental results on synthetic and real data demonstrate the greater accuracy of this method compared to conventional photometric stereo based on brightness images.

Face Shape and Reflectance Acquisition using a Multispectral Light Stage
In this thesis, we discuss the design and calibration (geometric and radiometric) of a novel shape and reflectance acquisition device called the “Multispectral Light Stage”. This device can capture highly detailed facial geometry (down to the level of skin pores detail) and Multispectral reflectance map which can be used to estimate biophysical skin parameters such as the distribution of pigmen...

We present a system for augmenting depth camera output using multispectral photometric stereo. The technique is demonstrated using a Kinect sensor and is able to produce geometry independently for each frame. Improved reconstruction is demonstrated using the Kinect’s inbuilt RGB camera and further improvements are achieved by introducing an additional high resolution camera. As well as qualitat...
متن کاملSimultaneous Estimation of Spectral Reflectance and Normal from a Small Number of Images
Spectral reflectance is inherent characteristics of an object surface and therefore useful not only for computer vision tasks such as material classification but also compute graphics applications such as relighting. In this study, by integrating multispectral imaging and photometric stereo, we propose a method for simultaneously estimating the spectral reflectance and normal per pixel from a s...
متن کاملResolution-Enhanced Photometric Stereo
Conventional photometric stereo has a fundamental limitation that the scale of recovered geometry is limited to the resolution of the input images. However, surfaces that contain sub-pixel geometric structures are not well modelled by a single normal direction per pixel. In this work, we propose a technique for resolution-enhanced photometric stereo, in which surface geometry is computed at a r...
متن کاملA Photometric Stereo Using Re-Projected Images for Active Stereo Vision System
In optical 3D shape measurement, stereo vision with structured light can measure 3D scan data with high accuracy and is used in many applications, but fine surface detail is difficult to obtain. On the other hand, photometric stereo can capture surface details but has disadvantages, in that its 3D data accuracy drops and it requires multiple light sources. When the two measurement methods are c...
