A photometric approach to digitizing cultural artifacts
2001
Proceedings of the 2001 conference on Virtual reality, archeology, and cultural heritage - VAST '01
In this paper we present a photometry-based approach to the digital documentation of cultural artifacts. Rather than representing an artifact as a geometric model with spatially varying reflectance properties, we instead propose directly representing the artifact in terms of its reflectance field -the manner in which it transforms light into images. The principal device employed in our technique is a computer-controlled lighting apparatus which quickly illuminates an artifact from an exhaustive
