Abstract: A three-dimensional (3D) object scanner includes: an object platform configured to host a target object; a projector device configured to project a first light pattern on to the target object; an LED screen that surrounds the object platform and configured to emit a second light pattern; an imaging device configured to obtain a plurality of images of the target object from multiple view angles as the target object and the imaging device are relatively rotated to multiple rotation degrees. The plurality of images include images obtained when the projector device projects the first light pattern and images obtained when the LED screen emits the second light pattern. The images are used to determine 3D information and texture information of the target object.
