Single image 3D reconstruction based on control point grid

In order to construct 3D meshes from a single image quickly and intuitively, this paper presents a 3D reconstruction method based on control point grid. The key idea is to calculate the 2D control point grid of the target area and elevate each control point according to a parameterized 3D growing rule proposed from prior knowledge. First, the contour of the target object is divided into a major component and side components and the skeleton of each component is extracted. 2D control point grid is calculated combining the curvature and geometric feature of the contour and lifted into 3D space with corresponding height defined by parameter mapping. Finally, a complete 3D model is obtained after component combination and texturing. Experimental results show that this method can reasonably and efficiently recover the 3D shape of the target object while maintaining fine curvature and geometric features.
