Abstract

For the modelling of natural objects various approaches are known. Buschmann/Niem [1] developed an algorithm for the automatic modelling of isolated objects with convex shapes using silhouettes from multiple views of the object. One major drawback of this approach is its limitation on modelling objects with concavities. One way to overcome this restriction is to integrate depth information into the convex volume model. This additional information can be obtained by disparity/depth estimation using the same images. The aim of this contribution is to describe the individual steps which are necessary to calculate a depth value for each pixel of the object in each perspective view.
