SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR MODEL FITTING AND REGISTRATION OF OBJECTS FOR 2D-TO-3D CONVERSION

摘要

A system and method is provided for model fitting and registration of objects for 2D-to-3D conversion of images to create stereoscopic images. The system and method of the present disclosure provides for acquiring at least one two-dimensional (2D) image (202), identifying at least one object of the at least one 2D image (204), selecting at least one 3D model from a plurality of predetermined 3D models (206), the selected 3D model relating to the identified at least one object, registering the selected 3D model to the identified at least one object (208), and creating a complementary image by projecting the selected 3D model onto an image plane different than the image plane of the at least one 2D image (210). The registering process can be implemented using geometric approaches or photometric approaches.
