Abstract:
We present a system which automatically generates 3D models from a sequence of stereo images and point clouds. We show the advantages of using parametric geometric shapes, the so-called superquadrics. We found that using a superposition of extended superquadrics results in higher quality models for sparse or relatively inaccurate point clouds.
