Abstract
A simple and cost effective experimental method is developed to reconstruct the complete 3D shapes of different objects outer perimeter. In this paper, a mannequin’s head, a cube and a cylinder are used as subjects. A safe and practical method to apply a random speckle pattern on a human’s face is also established, by using an air brush make up set. The apparatus for the proposed method is environmentally friendly and consists of basic camera equipment. The experimental method requires a single camera and a double sided calibration board, with check marks on both sides that are aligned with each other. In order to get multi-view stereo images, rotational and translational movements of the subject are executed using a pan head and a slider. The alteration of the rotational and translational displacement error between the overlaying sets of the 3D point clouds and alignment is executed using the iterative closet point algorithm method. Finally, accuracy evaluations of the 3D models are performed.
