A new mult ispectral photometric-stereo method removes interreflection on diffuse materials using multispectral-reflectance information and reconstructs 3D shapes with high accuracy.
Abstract
Multispectral imaging and photometric stereo are common in 3D imaging but rarely have been combined. Reconstructing a 3D object's shape using photometric stereo is challenging owing to indirect illumination, specular reflection, and self-shadows, and removing interreflection in photometric stereo is problematic. A new multispectral photometric-stereo method removes interreflection on diffuse materials using multispectral-reflectance information and reconstructs 3D shapes with high accuracy. You can integrate this method into photometric-stereo systems by simply substituting the original camera with a multispectral camera.

Practical SVBRDF acquisition of 3D objects with unstructured flash photography

TL;DR: By removing the diffuse reflection assumption and leveraging instead such SVBRDF information, the method outputs high-quality 3D geometry reconstructions, including more accurate high-frequency details than state-of-the-art multiview stereo techniques.

Compact snapshot hyperspectral imaging with diffracted rotation

TL;DR: This work presents a compact, diffraction-based snapshot hyperspectral imaging method, using only a novel diffractive optical element (DOE) in front of a conventional, bare image sensor, and introduces a novel DOE design that generates an anisotropic shape of the spectrally-varying PSF.

Simultaneous acquisition of polarimetric SVBRDF and normals

TL;DR: This work presents a complete polarimetric BRDF (pBRDF) model that can define mixed polarization of both specular and diffuse reflection, and proposes a novel inverse-rendering method with joint optimization of pBRDF and normals to capture spatially-varying material appearance.

Unbiased Photometric Stereo for Colored Surfaces: A Variational Approach

TL;DR: A new formulation of color photometric stereo is proposed, based on image ratios, that makes the technique independent from the albedos, which allows the unbiased 3D-reconstruction of colored surfaces in a single step, by solving a system of linear PDEs using a variational approach.
