A Study of Reverse Engineering Program Based on Obtaining Point Clouds from Object Images

Journal Title: International Journal of Modern Engineering Research (IJMER) - Year 2013, Vol 3, Issue 2

Abstract

 Abstract: This study focuses on developing a program which obtains 3D point clouds by interpreting images taken with a digital camera, using image processing. In the developed program, images taken with a digital camera without using a specific shooting condition are evaluated pixel by pixel. These evaluations are made with reference points marked on the image in the designed area by user. The 3D point clouds of the objects in the marked area can be obtained in a short time interpreting pixel values of the limited area. In the study, a different approach is presented, in which image processing and Reverse Engineering (RE) techniques are used, in the process of 3D design and manufacturing. Furthermore, the developed program has the advantages of keeping a relatively short processing, and because of using reference area, images and point clouds used can express objects in image. In this study, in addition, algorithms used while processing images in developed program are explained on a sample image in detail, and sample images which obtained point clouds and their solid models are given
