Projection Image Compensation Using Supplementary Images

The patent performs preliminary actions by acquiring supplementary images at multiple positions before final texture mapping. These supplementary images are pre-acquired to cover potential discontinuous sections, allowing the system to extract and fill in missing RGB information from these pre-acquired images during the texture mapping process, thus preventing information loss at boundaries.

The patent introduces supplementary images as intermediary elements between the main representative images. These supplementary images act as mediators that bridge the gaps between adjacent representative images, providing the necessary RGB information for faces that would otherwise be discontinuous or missing at image boundaries.

The patent segments the texture mapping process into distinct stages: first identifying discontinuous sections using representative images, then selectively extracting and processing only the necessary supplementary images for those specific sections. This segmentation allows the system to handle large coverage areas by processing data in manageable chunks rather than attempting to process all images simultaneously.

The patent applies local quality by extracting and processing supplementary images only in the specific regions where discontinuous sections are detected, rather than uniformly processing all acquired images. This selective approach reduces computational complexity by focusing processing resources only on areas that need supplementation, while maintaining comprehensive coverage.
