Photometric stereo is a method of recovering surface normals (needle map) from images. The surface inte- gral of surface normals is used to reconstruct a depth map; however, the depth edges, which are discontinuous boundaries of the depth map, pose a problem for pho- tometric stereo. When the surface of objects includes depth edges, the reconstructed depth map may contain errors. To solve this problem, we detect depth edges using shadows and compute a relative depth between two distant points using the widths of the correspond- ing shadows. We define an error function and recon- struct the depth map by minimizing the error function. Experimental results with synthetic and with real image data demonstrate the effectiveness of our approach. |
