Flattening of 3D data
Abstract
The digital library project strives to digitise special collections of libraries; this consists in storing as binary data, photographs of the content of ancient or rare manuscripts. The object is typically not in a flat plane. One collects, along with the photograph of the unflattened object (and the inevitably distorted text), a positional reading of its surface using laserometer. It is then a mathematical problem of how to use the latter information to undo the distortion of the photograph before storing the digitised image. We discuss a variational formulation and implementation of this
