Abstract

See full text

Methods and systems for surface normal estimation are disclosed. In some aspects, a plurality of images or depth maps representing a three dimensional object from multiple viewpoints is received. Surface normals at surface points within a single image of the plurality of images are estimated based on surface points within the single image. An electronic representation of a three dimensional surface of the object is generated based on the surface normals and a point cloud comprised of surface points derived from the plurality of images.
