The Dynamic Photometric Stereo Method Using a Multi-Tap CMOS Image Sensor [PDF]
Sensors, 2018 The photometric stereo method enables estimation of surface normals from images that have been captured using different but known lighting directions. The classical photometric stereo method requires at least three images to determine the normals in a ...

Photometric Stereo-Based Depth Map Reconstruction for Monocular Capsule Endoscopy [PDF]
Sensors, 2020 The capsule endoscopy robot can only use monocular vision due to the dimensional limit. To improve the depth perception of the monocular capsule endoscopy robot, this paper proposes a photometric stereo-based depth map reconstruction method. First, based

DRM-Based Colour Photometric Stereo Using Diffuse-Specular Separation for Non-Lambertian Surfaces [PDF]
Journal of Imaging, 2022 This paper presents a photometric stereo (PS) method based on the dichromatic reflectance model (DRM) using colour images. The proposed method estimates surface orientations for surfaces with non-Lambertian reflectance using diffuse-specular separation ...

Polarisation photometric stereo [PDF]
Computer Vision and Image Understanding, 2017 This paper concerns a novel approach to fuse two-source photometric stereo (PS) data with polarisation information for complete surface normal recovery for smooth or slightly rough surfaces. PS is a well-established method but is limited in application by its need for three or more well-spaced and known illumination sources and Lambertian reflectance ...

Three-Dimensional Reconstruction from Single Image Base on Combination of CNN and Multi-Spectral Photometric Stereo [PDF]
Sensors, 2018 Multi-spectral photometric stereo can recover pixel-wise surface normal from a single RGB image. The difficulty lies in that the intensity in each channel is the tangle of illumination, albedo and camera response; thus, an initial estimate of the normal ...

Summary study of data-driven photometric stereo methods
Virtual Reality & Intelligent Hardware, 2020 Background: A photometric stereo method aims to recover the surface normal of a 3D object observed under varying light directions. It is an ill-defined problem because the general reflectance properties of the surface are unknown.

A Photometric Stereo Using Re-Projected Images for Active Stereo Vision System
Applied Sciences (Switzerland), 2017 In optical 3D shape measurement, stereo vision with structured light can measure 3D scan data with high accuracy and is used in many applications, but fine surface detail is difficult to obtain.

Latent Code Predictor for Accelerating Disparity Estimation in Stereo-Endoscopic Surface Reconstruction [PDF]
SensorsDisparity estimation from stereo-endoscopic images is critical for 3D reconstruction in minimally invasive surgery (MIS). However, surgical environments have inherent interference factors including soft tissue deformation, motion blur, and photometric ...
