To solve the problem of low accuracy of multi-view scattered point cloud registration in objects surface 3D point cloud reconstruction process using TOF (time-of-flight) cameras
this paper presents an optimization registration method. The method obtains the absolute transformation matrix of any point-cloud to the reference coordinate system by building a target functions and combining adjacent point-cloud transformation matrix to minimize the objective function
avoid the accumulation of errors caused by registration of continuous point clouds. We use different objects for our experiments
and the results show that the method ensures the speed of point cloud registration. At the same time
it improves the accuracy of the multi-view point cloud registration
as well as enhances the effect of the objects point cloud model reconstruction. Furthemore
it is conducive to realize 3D surface mesh reconstruction.
