  • Abstract
    This work presents a method for the registration of three-dimensional (3-D) shapes. The method is based on the iterative closest point (ICP) algorithm and improves it through the use of a 3-D volume containing the shapes to be registered. The Voronoi diagram of the “model” shape points is first constructed in the volume. Then this is used for the calculation of the closest point operator. This way a dramatic decrease of the computational cost is achieved
