Abstract
A method for reconstructing a three dimensional (3D) model, suitable for reconstructing the 3D model of an object by using a voxel, is provided. After the voxel is cut to a plurality of sub-voxels, the sub-voxels of which a projection image is inside a silhouette image are reserved. It is determined whether to recut the sub-voxel corresponding to the projection image, which is on the edge of the silhouette. When it is determined to recut the sub-voxel, the above-mentioned steps are repeated until recut is not required, thereby reconstructing the 3D model according to the reserved sub-voxels.
