Reconstruction and Analysis of Shapes from 3D Scans
doctoral thesis
In this thesis, we measure 3D shapes with the use of 3D laser technology, a recent technology that combines physics, mathematics, and computer science to acquire the surface geometry of 3D shapes in the computer. We use this surface geometry to fully reconstruct real world shapes as computer models, and to analyze the characteristics and proportions of human body models for biometric purposes. Tasks that would require a tremendous effort if not done automatically by a computer.
