Full automation and true colors in 3D modeling of cultural heritage
Anna Paviotti · SPIE Newsroom · 2007
Three-dimensional modeling of arbitrary surfaces is well established in some niche industrial applications (e.g., animated films and industrial mechanics) and is gaining increasing importance in other fields, such as the documentation of cultural heritage, biotechnology, and medicine. Broad adoption of the technique, however, depends on automating procedures and on being able to obtain reflectance data and artifact-free colors. We describe approaches to satisfying these requirements.
