THREE DIMENSIONAL IMAGE CAPTURE SYSTEM FOR IMAGING BUILDING FACADES USING A DIGITAL CAMERA, A NEAR-INFRARED CAMERA, AND LASER RANGE FINDER

摘要

A system that facilitates collecting data is described herein. The system includes a digital camera that is configured to capture images in a visible light spectrum and a near-infrared camera that is configured to capture near infrared images, wherein a field of view of the digital camera and the field of view of the near-infrared camera are substantially similar. The system further includes a trigger component that is configured to cause the digital camera and the near-infrared camera to capture images at a substantially similar point in time, and also includes a mounting mechanism that facilitates mounting the digital camera and the near-infrared camera to an automobile.
