  • Patent number: 9235922
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method for modeling a scene from a plurality of maps representative of depth, each map representative of depth being associated with a view of the said scene according to a particular viewpoint, To optimize the fidelity and precision of the scene modeling, the method comprises the following steps: generating, for each map representative of depth, a surface representative of the said depth map in world space; estimating a volume bounding all surfaces generated, the said bounding volume being discretised into a plurality of voxels; associating attributes representative of transparency with the said voxels of the bounding volume; and generating a resulting surface according to the attributes representative of transparency associated with the said voxels. The invention also relates to a device for processing the data representative of the corresponding depth.

  • Publication number: 20140354632
    Abstract: A method for texturing a mesh associated with a surface representative of a scene captured in a plurality of images, wherein at least a mesh element of the mesh is at least partially visible from at least two first images of the plurality of images. As to reduce the amount of texture information associated with multi-views data representative of the scene, the method comprises for each first image (110 to 140), association of a first texture information with the mesh element, projection of the first texture information in the at least two first images, for each first texture information, estimation of an error information according to a comparison result between the projected first texture information and the texture information of said at least two first images, and selection of one of the at least two first texture information according to the error information.
