Abstract
The invention presents a system and a method for 3D human reconstruction using a compact kit of depth cameras. Instead of using complex and expensive devices as in traditional methods, the proposed system and method employs a simple, easy-to-install system to accurately collect the human body shape. The generated model is capable of moving thanks to a skeleton system simulating the human skeleton. The proposed system includes four blocks: Data Collection Block, Point Cloud Standardization Block, Human Digitization Block and Output Block. The proposed method includes five steps: Point Cloud Collecting, Point Cloud Filtering, Point Cloud Calibrating, Point Cloud Optimizing and 3D Human Model Generating.
