Abstract: Instructions indicative of changing a view of a virtual object may be received by a device. At least a portion of the virtual object may be viewable from a viewpoint that is at a given distance from a surface of the virtual object. The device may cause a change of the view along a rotational path around the virtual object in response to the receipt of the instructions based on the given distance being greater than a threshold distance. The device may cause a change of the view along a translational path indicative of a shape of the surface of the virtual object in response to the receipt of the instructions based on the given distance being less than the threshold distance.

Abstract: Within examples, object image masking is provided. An example method includes receiving a depth mask of an object, projecting the depth mask of the object onto an image of the object in a background so as to generate a depth image of the object in the background, determining portions of the depth image of the object in the background that are representative of the object and that are representative of the background, based on the portions of the depth image of the object in the background that are representative of the object determining a foreground mask of the object, and using the foreground mask of the object to identify portions of the image representative of the object.

Abstract: Systems and devices for acquiring imagery and three-dimensional (3D) models of objects are provided. An example device includes a platform configured to enable an object to be positioned thereon, and a plurality of scanners configured to capture geometry and texture information of the object when the object is positioned on the platform. A first scanner is positioned below the platform so as to capture an image of a portion of an underside of the object, a second scanner is positioned above the platform, and a third scanner is positioned above the platform and offset from a position of the second scanner. The scanners are positioned such that each scanner is outside of a field of view of other scanners. Scanners may include a camera, a light source, and a light-dampening element, and the device may include a control module configured to operate the scanners to individually scan the object.
