SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR GEOMETRICALLY MAPPING TWO-DIMENSIONAL IMAGES TO THREE-DIMENSIONAL SURFACES

摘要

A method of mapping a two-dimensional image to a three-dimensional surface includes capturing data for a two-dimensional image and a three-dimensional structure. A process determines coincident points between the 2D image and the 3D structure and maps points on the 2D image to the 3D structure by assigning relative two-coordinate points from the two dimensional image to relative three-coordinate points of the three-dimensional structure. The mapping creates a 3D surface and texturing and removes superfluous data from the created three-dimensional surface to clean the mapped resultant.
