Abstract

This disclosure relates to reconstructing three-dimensional models of objects from two-dimensional images. According to a first aspect, this specification describes a computer implemented method for creating a three-dimensional reconstruction from a two-dimensional image, the method comprising: receiving a two-dimensional image; identifying an object in the image to be reconstructed and identifying a type of said object; spatially anchoring a pre-determined set of object landmarks within the image; extracting a two-dimensional image representation from each object landmark; estimating a respective three-dimensional representation for the respective two-dimensional image representations; and combining the respective three-dimensional representations resulting in a fused three-dimensional representation of the object.
