A method for performing an operation on an object includes capturing a plurality of images of the object. Each image is a different view of the object. The method also includes generating a sparse 3D point cloud from the plurality of images. The sparse 3D point cloud defines a 3D model of the object. The sparse 3D point cloud includes a multiplicity of missing points that each correspond to a hole in the 3D model that renders the 3D model unusable for performing the operation on the object. The method additionally includes performing curvature-based upsampling to generate a denser 3D point cloud. The denser 3D point cloud includes a plurality of filled missing points. The missing points are filled from performance of the curvature-based upsampling. The denser 3D point cloud defines a dense 3D model that is useable for performing the operation on the object.
