A Model-Based Approach for Human Body Reconstruction from 3D Scanned Data

Human body scanners can quickly provide clouds of more than 200 000 points representing the human body's surface. Many new applications can be derived from the ability to build a 3D model of a real person, especially in the textile industry allowing virtual try-on approachs. However, getting a regular model, suitable for these applications from scanned data is not a straightforward task. In this paper, we propose a model-based approach to model a specific person. We use a generic model whitch is segmented and points are organized in slices. We adapt the sizes of each body limb and then fit each slice on the data, limb by limber.
