Abstract:
We propose and demonstrate a method of generating 3D model using depth and color
information of real-object using Microsoft Kinect sensor using our proposed pixel mapping
algorithm. The primary idea of the method is to manipulate RGB and depth data within arrays to
plot in three dimensional frame to generate the 3D colored model of any real-object. The
proposed system comprises of 3 phases. The phases include acquisition of color and depth
information of real objects, extraction and processing of RGB and depth data, generating 3D
model using our proposed pixel mapping algorithm. Whereas, our proposed algorithm focuses on
creating several 1D arrays for depth as well as the color data meaning Red, Green, Blue pixel
values separately. By mapping the depth values accordingly pixel-wise 3D black and white
model can be created where the background is also included. By limiting the depth values
according to the objects position the background can also be removed to construct the focused
object's 3d model. Furthermore, our algorithm maps the R, G, B arrays in the black and white
model to add proper colors pixel-wise .As a result, the colorful RGB 3D model can be achieved.
