The purpose of this paper is to describe how to reconstruct a 3D model based on a single front facial image. With the use of computer vision library named OpenCV and graphics library OpenGL, a 3D facial reconstruction software was developed in the environment of visual studio 2008. Firstly, the facial images in the format of bmp were read by this software. Then the key features in the face image were extracted. Finally, a personalized 3D face model was successfully reconstructed. The whole process only needs a single front face image which contains a neutral expression and uniform illumination conditions. In a word, the operation is simple and the speed is fast.
