Disclosed herein are an apparatus and method for verifying and correcting degree of 3D-printed joints movement. A method for correcting a print position of a three-dimensional (3D) object is performed by a 3D object print position correction apparatus, and includes setting at least one adjacent mesh of a 3D object in which multiple shells are connected to each other through a joint structure, calculating movement degree information for the joint structure of the 3D object using the set adjacent mesh, and correcting a print position of the 3D object such that the print position matches the calculated movement degree information.

Disclosed herein is an apparatus and method for automatically creating a 3D personalized figure suitable for 3D printing by detecting a face area and features for respective regions from face data acquired by heterogeneous sensors and by optimizing global/local transformation. The 3D personalized figure creation apparatus acquires face data of a user corresponding to a reconstruction target; extracts feature points for respective regions from the face data, and reconstructs unique 3D models of the user's face, based on the extracted feature points; creates 3D figure models based on the unique 3D models and previously stored facial expression models and body/adornment models; and verifies whether each 3D figure model has a structure and a shape corresponding to actual 3D printing, corrects and edits the 3D figure model based on results of verification, and outputs a 3D figure model corresponding to 3D printing.

Disclosed herein are an apparatus and method for correcting a disparity map. The apparatus includes a disparity map area setting unit, a pose estimation unit, and a disparity map correction unit. The apparatus removes the noise of the disparity map attributable to stereo matching and also fills in holes attributable to occlusion using information about the depth of a 3-dimensional (3D) model produced in a preceding frame of a current frame, thereby improving a disparity map and depth performance and providing high-accuracy depth information to an application to be used.

Disclosed herein are an apparatus and method for reconstructing a three-dimensional (3D) face based on multiple cameras. The apparatus includes a multi-image analysis unit, a texture image separation unit, a reconstruction image automatic synchronization unit, a 3D appearance reconstruction unit, and a texture processing unit. The multi-image analysis unit determines the resolution information of images received from a plurality of cameras, and determines whether the images have been synchronized with each other. The texture image separation unit separates a texture processing image by comparing the resolutions of the received images. The reconstruction image automatic synchronization unit synchronizes images that are determined to be asynchronous images by the multi-image analysis unit. The 3D appearance reconstruction unit computes the 3D coordinate values of the synchronized images, and reconstructs a 3D appearance image. The texture processing unit reconstructs a 3D image by mapping the texture processing image to the 3D appearance image.
