Shadows are one of the most significant difficulties of the photometric stereo method. When four or more images are available, local surface orientation is overdetermined and the s...
Photometric stereo relies on inverting the image formation process, and doing this accurately requires reasoning about the visibility of light sources with respect to each image po...
We present a sensor fusion scheme that combines active stereo with photometric stereo. Aiming at capturing full-frame depth for dynamic scenes at a minimum of three lighting condi...

We present an algorithm for performing Lambertian photometric stereo in the presence of shadows. The algorithm has three novel features. First, a fast graph cuts based method is u...
We present a recursive algorithm for 3D surface reconstruction based on Photometric Stereo in the presence of highlights, and self and cast shadows. We assume that the surface reļ...
