SCANOPY - Scan Data Organisation, Processing and Display | TU Wien

The aim of the Scanopy project is to provide efficient algorithms for working with 3D laser scan data. The first main challenge is to improve the quality of raw scan data via filtering, scan completion and repair, making use of image information and symmetries. The second challenge is to and second to develop efficient data structures and algorithm to allow displaying huge point-based models. The third challenge is to improve the appearance of the models via lighting and relighting.

Research Areas

Rendering
In this area, we concentrate on algorithms that synthesize images to depict 3D models or scenes, often by simulating or approximating the physics of light.
