Abstract
In one embodiment, a system and method for modeling a three-dimensional object includes capturing two-dimensional images of the object from multiple different viewpoints to obtain multiple views of the object, estimating slices of the object that lie in parallel planes that cut through the object, and computing a surface of the object from the estimated slices.
