The importance of landscape and heritage recording and documentation with optical remote
sensing sensors is well recognized at international level. The continuous development of …

The importance of cultural and natural heritage documentation is well recognized at
international level, and there is an increasing pressure to document and preserve heritage …

This manuscript presents a review on the application of a remote sensing technique
(terrestrial laser scanning, TLS) to a well‐known topic (rock slope characterization and …

We address the problem of building watertight 3D models from surfaces that contain holes-
for example, sets of range scans that observe most but not all of a surface. We specifically …

Global illumination effects such as inter-reflections, diffusion and sub-surface scattering
severely degrade the performance of structured light-based 3D scanning. In this paper, we …

Translucent objects pose a difficult problem for traditional structured light 3D scanning
techniques. Subsurface scattering corrupts the range estimation in two ways: by drastically …

This state of the art report covers reconstruction methods for transparent and specular
objects or phenomena. While the 3D acquisition of opaque surfaces with Lambertian …

We consider the problem of deliberately manipulating the direct and indirect light flowing
through a time-varying, fully-general scene in order to simplify its visual analysis. Our …

Global or indirect illumination effects such as interreflections and subsurface scattering
severely degrade the performance of structured light-based 3D scanning. In this paper, we …

Three-dimensional digital modeling of heritage works of art through optical scanners, has
been demonstrated in recent years with results of exceptional interest. However, the routine …
