3D Face reconstruction using modified shadow moiré

Today, three dimensional (3D) reconstruction of human face is gaining more importance, with many applications. Among the various methods, this paper uses shadow moiré method which has superiorities over other methods. In shadow moiré method an iterative three-step phase shifting method is proposed which increases the measurement accuracy by eliminating nonuniform phase shift error. The method is simulated in 3ds-Max environment and through system analysis and experimental results it has been shown that the presented method is a powerful tool for 3D reconstructing of human face with high accuracy.
