Abstract
Methods, systems, and computer readable media related to generating a three-dimensional model of a target object. A first source image, of a plurality of source images of a target object, is analyzed to identify a first region of the first image, the first region having attributes meeting one or more pre-defined criteria. The first region is marked for exclusion from use in generating a three-dimensional model of the target object. The three-dimensional model of the target object is generated using the plurality of source images. The marked first region is excluded in the generation of the three-dimensional model.
Claims19
A method of generating a three-dimensional model of a target object, comprising:
- analyzing a first source image, of a plurality of source images of a target object, to identify a first region of the first source image, the first region having attributes meeting one or more pre-defined criteria;
- marking the first region for exclusion from use in generating a three-dimensional point cloud for the target object and inclusion in generating one or more textures relating to the target object;
- and
- generating a three-dimensional model of the target object using the plurality of source images, comprising:
- generating the three-dimensional point cloud for the target object while excluding the first region;
- and
- generating the one or more textures relating to the target object using the first region.
A computer program product for generating a three-dimensional model of a target object, the computer program product comprising:
- a non-transitory computer-readable storage medium having computer-readable program code embodied therewith, wherein the program code, when executed by a processor, performs an operation, the operation comprising:
- analyzing a first source image, of a plurality of source images of a target object, to identify a first region of the first source image, the first region having attributes meeting one or more pre-defined criteria;
- marking the first region for exclusion from use in generating a three-dimensional point cloud for the target object and inclusion in generating one or more textures relating to the target object;
- and
- generating a three-dimensional model of the target object using the plurality of source images, comprising:
- generating the three-dimensional point cloud for the target object while excluding the first region;
- and
- generating the one or more textures relating to the target object using the first region.
A system, comprising:
- a processor;
- and
- a memory storing a program, which, when executed on the processor, performs an operation, the operation comprising:
- analyzing a first source image, of a plurality of source images of a target object, to identify a first region of the first source image, the first region having attributes meeting one or more pre-defined criteria;
- marking the first region for exclusion from use in generating a three-dimensional point cloud for the target object and inclusion in generating one or more textures relating to the target object;
- and
- generating a three-dimensional model of the target object using the plurality of source images, comprising:
- generating the three-dimensional point cloud for the target object while excluding the first region;
- and
- generating the one or more textures relating to the target object using the first region.
