Virtual Navigation of Interior Structures by Lidar

Abstract

In this project, we propose to develop a prototype system that can automatically reconstruct 3D scenes of the interior of a building, cave or other structure using ground-based LIDAR scanning technology. We develop a user-friendly real-time visualization software package that will allow the users to interactively visualize, navigate and walk through the room from different view angles, zoom in and out, etc.
