Reflectance Function Estimation and Shape Recovery from Image Sequence of a Rotating Object
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper we describe a technique for surface recovery of a rotating object illuminated under a collinear light source (where the light source lies on or near the optical axis). We show that the surface reeectance function can be directly estimated from the image sequence without any assumption on the reeectance property of the object surface. From the image sequence, the 3D locations of some singular surface points are calculated and their brightness values are extracted for the estimation of the reeectance function. We also show that the surface can be recovered by using shading information in two images of the rotating object. Iteratively using the rst-order Taylor serious approximation and the estimated reeectance function, the depth and orientation of the surface can be recovered simultaneously. The experimental results on real image sequences of both matte and specular surfaces demonstrate that the technique is feasible and robust.

Recovery of Shape and Surface Reflectance of Specular Object from Rotation of Light Source
In this paper, we present a method for recovery of shape and surface re ectance of specular object from color images taken with the light source rotating. The image sequence is taken with a xed camera while the light source is relatively rotating around the axis parallel to the optical axis of the camera. We derive the relationship between the body re ectance at every object surface point and t...

For synthesizing realistic images of a real three dimensional object, reflectance properties of the object surface, as well as the object shape, need to be measured. This paper describes one approach to create a three dimensional object model with physically correct reflectance properties by observing a real object. The approach consists of three steps. First, a sequence of range images and col...

متن کاملReflectance and Shape Estimation with a Light Field Camera under Natural Illumination
Reflectance and shape are two important components in visually perceiving the real world. Inferring the reflectance and shape of an object through cameras is a fundamental research topic in the field of computer vision. While three-dimensional shape recovery is pervasive with varieties of approaches and practical applications, reflectance recovery has only emerged recently. Reflectance recovery...
متن کاملImage Enhancement via Reducing Impairment Effects on Image Components
In this paper, a new approach is presented for improving image quality. It provides a new outlook on how to apply the enhancment methods on images. Image enhancement techniques may deal with the illumination, resolution, or distribution of pixels values. Issues such as the illumination of the scene and reflectance of objects affect on image captures. Generally, the pixels value of an image is ...
