Recent years have seen the development of mature solutions for reconstructing deformable surfaces from a single image, provided that they are relatively well-textured. By contrast, recovering the 3D shape of texture-less surfaces remains an open problem, and essentially relates to Shape-from-Shading. In this paper, we introduce a data-driven approach to this problem. We introduce a general fram...

for the first time we have used eyelid skin expansion to facilitate reconstruction of selected patients with shortage of lid skin (e.g. for burn scar and after excision of tumors). this method allows for a controlled increase in skin, need for reconstruction, and offers many advantages over grafted skin transfered from a distance. color, texture, thinness, delicacy and adnexal structures are ae...

We present a novel algorithm for simultaneous visual hull reconstruction and rendering by exploiting off-theshelf graphics hardware. The reconstruction is accomplished by projective texture mapping in conjunction with alpha test. Parallel to the reconstruction, rendering is also carried out in the graphics pipeline. We texture the visual hull view-dependently with the aid of fragment shaders, s...
