Abstract

The generation of a 3D reconstruction of an object is disclosed, which includes illuminating the object, capturing image data in relation to the object, and calculating the 3D reconstruction of the object from the image data. The image data contains first image data and second image data, wherein the first image data are captured when the object is illuminated with illumination light, at least some of which, in relation to an object imaging beam path, is reflected light which illuminates the object, wherein the second image data are captured from different recording directions when the object is illuminated with illumination light, at least some of which is guided in the object imaging beam path, and wherein the 3D reconstruction of the object is calculated from the first image data and the second image data.
