Method for reconstructing three-dimensional object combining structured light and photometry and terminal device

Filed:2020-11-17Pub:2026-03-24
Applicant:SHENZHEN INSTITUTES OF ADVANCED TECHNOLOGY CHINESE ACADEMY OF SCIENCES

The present application is applicable to the technical field of computer vision, and provides a method for reconstructing a three-dimensional object combining structured light and photometry and a terminal device, wherein the method comprises: acquiring N first images, wherein each first image is obtained by shooting after a coded pattern having a coding stripe sequence is projected to a three-dimensional object, and N is a positive integer; determining structured light depth information of the three-dimensional object based on the N first images; acquiring M second images, wherein the M second images are obtained by shooting after P light sources are respectively projected to the three-dimensional object from different directions, and M and P are positive integers; determining photometric information of the three-dimensional object based on the M second images; and reconstructing the three-dimensional object based on the structured light depth information and the photometric information. Therefore, the structured light system and the photometric system are combined to reconstruct the three-dimensional object, and the precision of a three-dimensional reconstruction result of the three-dimensional object with complex surfaces is improved.
