Looking around in our every day environment, many of the encountered objects are specular to some degree. Actively using this fact when reconstructing objects from image sequences...
Reconstructing transparent objects is a challenging problem. While producing reasonable results for quite complex objects, existing approaches require custom calibration or somewh...

We describe a novel device that can be used as a 2.5D
“scanner” for acquiring surface texture and shape. The device
consists of a slab of clear elastomer covered with a
refl...
This paper presents a new surface reconstruction method that extends previous carving methods for non-Lambertian objects by integrating the smoothness and image information of dif...
—Image-based computation of a 3D map for an indoor environment is a very challenging task, but also a useful step for vision-based navigation and path planning for autonomous sys...
