چکیده

This paper proposes a method for obtaining surface orientations of transparent objects using polarization in highlight. Since the highlight, the specular component of reflection light from objects, is observed only near the specular direction, it appears merely limited parts on an object surface. In order to obtain orientations of a whole object surface, we employ a spherical extended light source. This paper reports its experimental apparatus, a shape recovery algorithm, and its performance evaluation.

Measurement of surface orientations of transparent objects by use of polarization in highlight

A method is proposed for obtaining surface orientations of transparent objects by use of polarization in highlight. Since the highlight, the specular component of light reflected from objects, is observed only near the specular direction, it reveals only limited parts of an object’s surface. To obtain the orientations of the whole surface of an object, we employ a spherical extended light sourc...

Determining surface orientations of transparent objects based on polarization degrees in visible and infrared wavelengths.

Techniques for modeling an object through observation are very important in object recognition and virtual reality. A wide variety of techniques have been developed for modeling objects with opaque surfaces, whereas less attention has been paid to objects with transparent surfaces. A transparent surface has only surface reflection; it has little body reflection. We present a new method for obta...
