Title: Huy Bui: Innovator in 3D Imaging Technologies
Introduction
Huy Bui is a notable inventor based in McLean, VA, who has made significant contributions to the field of 3D imaging technologies. With a total of two patents to his name, Bui has developed innovative methods that enhance object scanning and tracking.
Latest Patents
Huy Bui's latest patents include "Keyframe-based object scanning and tracking" and "3D photogrammetry." The first patent describes methods and systems for keyframe-based object scanning and tracking. A sensor device captures images of objects in a scene. For each image, a computing device labels each of at least a plurality of pixels in the image, tracks at least one region of the labeled image to determine an estimate of a current pose of at least one object, validates the estimate of the current pose of the at least one object, selects the labeled image as a keyframe based upon validation of the estimate of the current pose, and updates a volumetric model comprising the at least one object using the keyframe. The computing device generates a final 3D model of the at least one object based upon the updated volumetric model. The second patent focuses on methods and systems for texturing a three-dimensional (3D) model using photogrammetry. A sensor captures scans of a physical object, including related pose information, and color images corresponding to each scan. A computing device generates a 3D mesh of the physical object. The computing device preprocesses the color images to remove blurry images and detect textured regions of the object in each non-blurry image. The computing device optimizes the pose information for each color image by generating associations between the color images and vertices in the 3D mesh and classifying the vertices as textured or non-textured. The computing device generates texture coordinates for the 3D mesh by segmenting the mesh, parameterizing the segments, and packing the parameterized segments into a texture atlas. The computing device paints the texture atlas using the color images that have optimized pose information to generate a model having texture coordinates for each vertex.
