We would like to invite you to the latest research seminar of the Creative Technology Research Centre.
Speaker: Dr Simant Prakoonwit (Associate Professor Of Games Technology at BU)
Title: Optimal 3D surface reconstruction from few 2D images
Date: Wednesday 3rd February 2016
Room: P302 LT, Poole House, Talbot Campus
Abstract:
The talk will discuss a possible method to use a small number, e.g. 5, of conventional 2D images to reconstruct multiple 3D object surfaces. Each object’s edge contours in images are automatically identified. Sparse optimal 3D landmark points of each bone are automatically reconstructed by pairing the 2D images. The reconstructed landmark point distribution on a surface is approximately optimal covering main characteristics of the surface. A surface growing method or a statistical shape model, dense point distribution model can then be used to fit the reconstructed optimal landmarks vertices to reconstruct a full surface of each object separately.
We hope to see you there.
