Visual Hull Construction from Semitransparent Coloured Silhouettes
نویسنده
چکیده
This paper attempts to create coloured semi-transparent shadow images that can be projected onto multiple screens simultaneously from different viewpoints. The inputs to this approach are a set of coloured shadow images and view angles, projection information and light configurations for the final projections. We propose a method to convert coloured semi-transparent shadow images to a 3D visual hull. A shadowpix type method is used to incorporate varying ratio RGB values for each voxel. This computes the desired image independently for each viewpoint from an arbitrary angle. An attenuation factor is used to curb the coloured shadow images beyond a certain distance. The end result is a continuous animated image that changes due to the rotated projection of the transparent visual hull.

The Visual Hull of Piecewise Smooth Objects
The visual hull relates the shape of an object to its silhouettes. This paper develops the theory of the visual hull of piecewise smooth objects, as those used in CAD applications. We show that the surface of the visual hull can be constructed using patches of nine visual event surfaces of the aspect graph of the object. A detailed analysis allows to prune away many surfaces and patches that ar...
متن کاملGeneration of Visual Hull Models of 3D Objects
This paper describes a method for generating visual hull models of 3D objects from digital images. The method can use one or more cameras in different setups to acquire various views of an object. From the generated images, 2D objects are segmented out giving the objects silhouettes. The silhouettes are projected into 3D space to create an estimate of the upper bound to the structure of the obj...
متن کاملCombining Stereo and Visual Hull for On-line Reconstruction of Dynamic Scenes
In this paper, we present a novel system which combines depth from stereo and visual hull reconstruction for acquiring dynamic real-world scenes at interactive rates. First, we use the silhouettes from multiple views to construct a polyhedral visual hull as an initial estimation of the object in the scene. The visual hull is used to limit the disparity range during stereo estimation. The use of...
متن کاملSilhouette Extraction from Multiple Images of an Unknown Background
Silhouette information is important in many applications such as virtual reality and visual hull construction. However, silhouette extraction from images relies on a known background. In this paper, we propose a method for silhouette extraction from an arbitrarily unknown background. To do this, we use multiple calibrated images. Each input image is first segmented in regions. Then, the consist...
متن کاملSilhouette Mapping
Recent image-based rendering techniques have shown success in approximating detailed models using sampled images over coarser meshes. One limitation of these techniques is that the coarseness of the geometric mesh is apparent in the rough polygonal silhouette of the rendering. In this paper, we present a scheme for accurately capturing the external silhouette of a model in order to clip the app...
