Abstract

This paper introduces a method that is based on two orthogonal images, which only need the front and side images of the tree to create a 3D tree model that is similar to the real model from any angle. First, we get the front and side images of the tree, then combined with user interaction to extract the front and side silhouette of the tree, and extract the main trunk. Second, we establish a visual hull according to the silhouette of tree. Third, system uses a visual hull and the built-in subbranches to generate three-dimensional branch structure of tree. Finally, we add the leaves to the branch, and then we get a complete three-dimensional tree model. In this paper, we implement a system to demonstrate out method.
