ABSTRACT:
To generate texture data for a 3D computer model150of a real-life object210,images300–316of the subject object are recorded from different viewing positions and directions. The image data is processed by an image processing apparatus2to register the viewing positions and directions of the images300–316based on the positions of features in the images. The 3D computer model150of the subject object is registered with the resulting registered set of images, and texture data is generated for the 3D computer model from the images.
