Construction of 3D shapes of objects from reconstructed 3D points

Estimation of 3-D objects from 2-D images is inherently performed by either motion or scene features methods as it has been described in different literatures. Structure from motion as a method employed in this study uses calibrated camera and reconstructed 3-D points from the structure of the scene for reliable and precise estimates. In this study we construct 3-D shapes using color pixels and reconstructed 3-D points to determine observable differences for the constructed 3-D images. The estimation using reconstructed 3-D points indicates that the sphere is recovered by the use of scale factor due to its known size while the one obtained by using color pixels has look similar to the former but different in the scales of the axes.
