  • Systems and methods for texture mapping for a 3D model
    Patent number: 11734870
    Abstract: Systems and methods for constructing a three-dimensional virtual reality model of a property are disclosed. An exemplary system includes a storage device configured to store a structure mesh of the three-dimensional virtual reality model and texture images captured of the property. The system further includes at least one processor configured to extract a planar area from the structure mesh of the three-dimensional virtual reality model. The at least one processor is further configured to obtain initial texture patches for the planar area from the texture images, determine a target texture patch for the planar area from the initial texture patches projected to an imaging plane of a virtual camera, and add the target texture patch to a texture atlas. The at least one processor is also configured to construct the three-dimensional virtual reality model by mapping the texture atlas to the structure mesh of the three-dimensional virtual reality model.
