Reflection of an object provides an extra view of the object from a different viewing angle. From the two views (the object and its reflection), 3D shape of the object can be recovered using multi-view reconstruction. This project will explore the 3D reconstruction problem from a view of an object and its reflected image(s) from one or more mirror plane(s). The student is expected to set up the experiments, examine the imaging geometry of the camera-mirror setup, and reconstruct simple 3D shapes.
Basic knowledge of 3D geometry, some experience in image processing, and good programming skills are required for this project.
