3-D modeling, object detection, and pose estimation are three of the most challenging tasks
in the area of 3-D computer vision. This paper presents a novel algorithm to perform these …

The demands for digital 3D content for numerous applications such as video games, movies,
virtual prototyping, advertisement, virtual reality, augmented reality or even digital …

3D shape measurement systems based on diffuse reflection of projected structured light are
widely used. Unfortunately, this measurement principle does not work for uncooperative …

Three-dimensional (3D) shape measurement systems based on diffuse reflection of
projected structured light do not deliver reliable data when measuring glossy, transparent …

The practical, rapid, and accurate optical 3D reconstruction of transparent objects with
contemporary non-contact optical techniques, has been an open challenge in the field of …

We report a multispectral based method that permits the evolution of shape from polarization
setup applied to 3D shape estimation of transparent objects. The setup is based on a …

Different from conventional millimeter-wave (MMW) holographic 3-D imaging, a new
technique that can produce accurate point cloud and the 3-D surface model of the target …

Open-cell metallic foams are increasingly used in various thermal systems. The temperature
distributions are significant for the comprehensive understanding of these foam-based …

A general approach based on mid-infrared (MIR) laser scanning is proposed to measure the
3-D ice shape no matter whether the ice is composed of clear ice, rime ice, mixed ice, or …

Fashion and design greatly influence the conception of manufactured products which now
exhibit complex forms and shapes. Two-dimensional quality control procedures (eg, shape …
