Abstract

We report the archiving project of Kyoto Gion Festival using high-resolution multiband imaging camera. We have been developing a two-shot six-band image capturing system for recording the color and physical properties of early modern tapestries. In an experiment, an image of tapestry whose image size was 2700 M-pixel was synthesized. The resolution of the images was 0.02 mm/pixel. Accurate color under an arbitrary illumination and spectral reflectance can be reproduced from the 6-band image using the Wiener estimation.
