Abstract :
This paper presents a complete system for scanning the geometry and surface color of a 3D object and for displaying realistic images of the object from arbitrary viewpoints. A stereo system with active light produces several views of dense range and color data. The data is registered and a surface that approximates the data is constructed. The surface estimate can be fairly coarse, as the appearance of fine detail is recreated by view-dependent texturing of the surface using color images
