Abstract

An image processing method includes obtaining two-dimensional and three-dimensional images of an object, extracting luminance and depth information from the three-dimensional image to generate luminance and depth image for the object, graying the two-dimensional image to obtain a single-channel grayscale image, selecting at least three same-location points from each of the grayscale and luminance image, calculating a coordinate transformation matrix between the grayscale and luminance images based on coordinates of the at least three same-location points in each of the grayscale and luminance images, and aligning the two-dimensional image with the luminance and depth images based on the coordinate transformation matrix to obtain fused image data. The fused image data includes color information of the two-dimensional image and the luminance and depth information of the three-dimensional image.
