The purpose of this document is to develop a 3D reconstruction algorithm for fixed scenes containing opaque objects with Lambertian surfaces

The work presented in this paper focuses in understanding a light sheet microscope. Light sheet microscopy consists in a thin sheet of light which illuminates the observed sample in the plane orthogonal to the objective, ...

Given the widespread availability of point cloud data from consumer depth sensors, 3D segmentation becomes a promising building block for high level applications such as scene understanding and interaction analysis. It ...

In computer vision, the process of 3D reconstruction consists of rebuilding a 3D scene from a set of images. The frames (images) can be extracted from a video sequence to reconstruct the captured scene. This research study ...

Traditional shape from silhouette methods compute the 3D shape as the intersection of the back-projected silhouettes in the 3D space, the so called visual hull. However, silhouettes that have been obtained with background ...

Real-time crowd simulation for virtual environment applications requires not only navigation and locomotion in large environments while avoiding obstacles and agents, but also rendering high quality 3D fully articulated ...

We propose a faster method for surface haptic rendering using image-based Hybrid Rugosity Mesostructures (HRMs), paired maps with per-face height eld displacements and normalmaps, which are layered on top of a much decimated ...

The paper presents an algorithm which recovers a 3D reflectivity image of a target from near-field scattering measurements. Spherical wave nearfield illumination is used, in order to avoid a costly compact range installation ...

Navigating through a virtual environment is one of the major user tasks in the 3D web. Although hundreds of interaction techniques have been proposed to navigate through 3D scenes in desktop, mobile and VR headset systems, ...
