Abstract
This paper introduces an algorithm for digital image processing of a complicated-shaped solid. The algorithm consists of two digital processings : (1) The height is calculated automatically through image correlation of a set of stereo photographs and (2) the shape of the solid is reconstructed on 3-dimensional matrix combining several sets of height data. The matrix will be used to show a shape of the solid as a cross section in any direction or to calculate the surface area, the cubic volume, the center of gravity and other geometrical values of the solid.
