Abstract
In this research, we have developed a compact and fast measurement system for 3D shape, normal vector and bidirectional reflectance distribution function (BRDF) of a 3D object. Since the proposed system uses linear light sources and a luminous intensity distribution of these light sources, the BRDF can be measured for a short time and without large measurement space. The proposed system is evaluated by two methods, by measuring sample known objects and by comparing actual and reproduced images, and then we confirmed its accuracy.
