  • Target detecting, editing and rebuilding method and system by 3D image
    Patent number: 8208715
    Abstract: A method and system for target detecting, editing and rebuilding by 3D image is provided, which comprises an inputting and picking unit, a training and detecting unit, a displaying and editing unit and a rebuilding unit. The inputting and picking unit receives a digital image and a LiDAR data and picks up a first parameter to form a 3D image. The training and detecting unit selects a target, picks up a second parameter therefrom, calculates the second parameter to generate a threshold and detects the target areas in the 3D image according to the threshold. The displaying and editing unit sets a quick selecting tool according to the threshold and edits the detecting result. The rebuilding unit sets a buffer area surrounding the target, picks up a third parameter therefrom and calculates the original shape of the target by the Surface Fitting method according to the third parameter.
