Abstract

Reflectance Transformation Imaging (RTI) is a technique that provides an enhanced visualization experience. The current acquisition methods for Reflectance Transformation Imaging (RTI) are time consuming and computationally expensive. This work investigates the idea of getting best light positions for RTI acquisition using surface topography. We propose automating the RTI acquisition by estimating the surface topography using deep learning method followed by estimating light positions using unsupervised clustering method. This is one shot method which only needs one image. We also created RTI Synthetic dataset in order to carry out experiments. We found that surface topography alone is not sufficient to estimate best light positions for RTI without putting constraints.
