Quick Capture and Reconstruction for 3D Head

Abstract

Recently, we have seen a growing trend in the reconstruction of accurate geometric models, acquired by an active method such as laser scanning or structured light. In this paper, we address the problem of creation of 3D head models from multiple RGB-Depth cameras. We propose a quick capture procedure that aims at achieving high accuracy and low-cost 3D head models with high quality. This is processed with registration of multiple RGB-Depth cameras, consolidation and matching of raw data, surface reconstruction and mesh coloring. Experiments demonstrate that it could capture the subject in one second and reconstruct the 3D head models with photo-realistic quality in 3 minutes.
