  • Publication number: 20140064579
    Abstract: Disclosed herein are an apparatus and method for generating a 3D face model for skin analysis. The apparatus includes a capturing box and a module box. The capturing box has an open surface, and also has another opening that is formed in a surface opposite the open surface and that allows a face of a person to be photographed to be inserted into an internal space of the capturing box. The module box is combined with the capturing box on the open surface of the capturing box, and acquires facial images by capturing the face of the person to be photographed at various angles under different types of lighting in order to generate a 3D face model for the analysis of the skin of the person.

  • Publication number: 20130176400
    Abstract: Disclosed is a technique for acquiring many images in different positions using multiple cameras to three dimensionally restore an object. The technique acquires images obtained by capturing an object by multiple cameras and corrects brightnesses between images captured by the multiple cameras based on an average brightness value calculated from the images captured by the multiple cameras so as to be constantly maintained. Therefore, it is possible to precisely restore a 3D model using images captured by multiple cameras having corrected brightness.
