Abstract:
Disclosed herein is an apparatus and method for automatically creating a 3D personalized figure suitable for 3D printing by detecting a face area and features for respective regions from face data acquired by heterogeneous sensors and by optimizing global/local transformation. The 3D personalized figure creation apparatus acquires face data of a user corresponding to a reconstruction target; extracts feature points for respective regions from the face data, and reconstructs unique 3D models of the user's face, based on the extracted feature points; creates 3D figure models based on the unique 3D models and previously stored facial expression models and body/adornment models; and verifies whether each 3D figure model has a structure and a shape corresponding to actual 3D printing, corrects and edits the 3D figure model based on results of verification, and outputs a 3D figure model corresponding to 3D printing.
Abstract:
Disclosed are an apparatus and a method for generating three-dimensional output data, in which the appearance or face of a user is easily restored in a three-dimensional manner by using one or a plurality of cameras including a depth sensor, a three-dimensional avatar for an individual, which is produced through three-dimensional model transition, and data capable of being three-dimensionally output, which is generated based on the three-dimensional avatar for an individual. The apparatus includes an acquisition unit that acquires a three-dimensional model based on depth information and a color image from at least one point of view, a selection unit that selects at least one of three-dimensional template models, and a generation unit that modifies at least one of a plurality of three-dimensional template models selected by the selection unit and generates three-dimensional output data based on the three-dimensional model acquired by the acquisition unit.
