Human Body 3D Scanning Techniques

• Human body 3D imaging by speckle texture projection Excellent article for anyone interested in scanning the human body for whatever reason. From Sensor Review, Volume 20, Number 3,2000, pp. 218-226
• Better Optical Triangulation through Spacetime Analysis From the abstract "We present a new ranging method based on analyzing the time evolution of the structured light reflections. Using our spacetime analysis, we can correct for each of these artifacts, thereby attaining significantly higher accuracy using existing technology. We present results that demonstrate the validity of our method using a commercial laser stripe triangulation scanner."
• Zippered Polygon Meshes from Range Images From the abstract "Range imaging offers an inexpensive and accurate means for digitizing the shape of three-dimensional objects. Because most objects self occlude, no single range image suffices to describe the entire object. We present a method for combining a collection of range images into a single polygonal mesh that completely describes an object to the extent that it is visible from the outside."
