THREE-DIMENSIONAL SHAPE DATA PROCESSOR AND MODELING SYSTEM

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To prevent a plate-shaped rise that an actual object does not have from being formed by extracting an area which meets set conditions form a two-dimensional image obtained by photographing the object and performing data correction for smoothing a rise of a part corresponding to the extracted area for a shape model of a body obtained by three-dimensional measurement. SOLUTION: A photographing system 30 of a modeling system 1A converts outward appearance information on a user as an original body into digital data. Shape data DS as measured information obtained by a three-dimensional measuring instrument 34 and color image data DC as photographic information obtained by a two-dimensional photographic device 36 are inputted to a data processor 40. The data processor 40 automatically deforms the shape model obtained by the three-dimensional measurement by making use of color photographic information on the head (including the face) so as to generate a model for the natural human head part of a forelock and properly smoothens the forelock of the shape model to eliminate a feeling a physical disorder.
