Abstract:
Estimating 3D shape of the object is an important research topic in the area of computer vision, with a wide range of applications. This paper introduces a new method for focused-based passive methods (like SFF) to approximate the 3D shape of the object using Bezier surface. The discrete nature of image sampling results in the loss of information between two consecutive images. Conventional approximation methods optimize or interpolate focus values. We have suggested interpolating depth values instead of focus value over a small patch on the object surface. The method approximates the surface more accurately and also reduces any noise caused by focus measure. The proposed method is tested and analyzed to demonstrate the effectiveness against traditional methods.
