3D Surface Reconstruction from Single 2D Image

Abstract

The image-based 3D reconstruction technique is an important method of 3D data passive acquired in computer vision. Aimed at the limitation of traditional SFS based 3D surface reconstruction method, a combined image-based 3D surface reconstruction method is given in this paper. Firstly, the pretreatment method of gradation is applied to convert the input color image to 256 gray image; secondly, shape from shading method is applied to recover the 3D profile of object; finally, the B-spline technique is adopted to reconstruct the model of surface and improve the resolution of surface. The key techniques such as the principle and algorithm of B-spline interpolation reconstruction are analyzed, and the experimental results are also given. The single-image based 3D reconstruction method given in this paper will supply a helpful condition for the extensive used of SFS technique.
