Abstract
An illustrative computing system is configured to perform volumetric reconstruction based on a confidence field. In one implementation, the computing system accesses color and depth data captured from a plurality of different vantage points for a surface point on a surface of an object. Based on the color and depth data captured from the plurality of different vantage points, the computing system determines a confidence field value associated with the surface point. Based on the confidence field value associated with the surface point, the computing system generates reconstructed color and depth data for a volumetric reconstruction of the surface of the object. Corresponding methods and systems are also disclosed.

A method comprising:
- accessing, by a computing system, color and depth data captured from a plurality of different vantage points for a surface point on a surface of an object;
- determining, by the computing system based on the color and depth data captured from the plurality of different vantage points, a confidence field value associated with the surface point;
- and
- generating, by the computing system based on the confidence field value associated with the surface point, reconstructed color and depth data for a volumetric reconstruction of the surface of the object.
A system comprising:
- a memory storing instructions;
- and
- a processor communicatively coupled to the memory and configured to execute the instructions to:
- access color and depth data captured from a plurality of different vantage points for a surface point on a surface of an object;
- determine, based on the color and depth data captured from the plurality of different vantage points, a confidence field value associated with the surface point;
- and
- generate, based on the confidence field value associated with the surface point, reconstructed color and depth data for a volumetric reconstruction of the surface of the object.
A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing instructions that, when executed, direct a processor of a computing device to:
- access color and depth data captured from a plurality of different vantage points for a surface point on a surface of an object;
- determine, based on the color and depth data captured from the plurality of different vantage points, a confidence field value associated with the surface point;
- and
- generate, based on the confidence field value associated with the surface point, reconstructed color and depth data for a volumetric reconstruction of the surface of the object.
