METHODS FOR AND APPARATUS FOR GENERATING A CONTINUUM OF THREE DIMENSIONAL IMAGE DATA
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method creating a continuum of three-dimensional image data, the method comprising:
- a) receiving multiple two-dimensional image data sets of a subject, wherein each image data set is captured from a disparate point on a continuum and each image data set comprises a plurality of features;
b) generating a composite image of the subject from portions of two or more of the multiple two-dimensional image data sets, wherein the portions are aligned in a dimension consistent with the continuum;
c) receiving data descriptive of a location of the plurality of features;
d) tracking the position of at least one of the plurality of features in two or more of the two-dimensional images;
e) generating a point cloud array for the at least one of the plurality of features;
f) converting the point cloud array to a polygon based model; and
g) associating a location for the polygon based model relative to the portions of the image data sets and based upon the location of the plurality of features.

Abstract
The present invention provides methods and apparatus for generating a continuum of image data sprayed over three-dimensional models. The three-dimensional models can be representative of features captured by the image data and based upon multiple image data sets capturing the features. The image data can be captured at multiple disparate points along another continuum.
