APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR EXTRAPOLATING OBSERVED SURFACES THROUGH OCCLUDED REGIONS

摘要

The presently disclosed embodiments may include a system for constructing a virtual 3D model of one or more objects within a scene, where the virtual 3D model contains one or more wholly or partially unobserved faces. In some embodiments the system may include at least one processing device configured to: receive, through a data interface, data describing a set of measurements of observed portions of the one or more objects in the scene; construct a preliminary 3D model, based on data received via the data interface, describing observed portions of the scene; generate an extension line network, based on the preliminary 3D model, describing unobserved portions of the one or more objects in the scene; construct at least one face associated with a wholly or partially unobserved portion of the one or more objects in the scene, based on the extension line network and the preliminary 3D model; and construct the virtual 3D model using the preliminary 3D model, which describes observed portions of the one or more objects in the scene, and the at least one constructed face associated with the wholly or partially unobserved portion of the one or more objects in the scene.
