Abstract

3D object reconstruction from single 2D images has many applications in multimedia. This paper proposes an approach based on image regularities such as connectivity, parallelism, and orthogonality possessed by the objects with simple user interactions. It is assumed that the objects are piecewise planar. By representing the 3D objects as a shape vector consisting of the normals of the faces of the objects, we impose geometric constraints on this shape vector using the regularities of the objects. We derive a system of equations in terms of the shape vector and the focal length, which we can solve for the shape vector optimally. Experimental results on real images are shown to demonstrate the effectiveness of this method.
