摘要
From the pyramids of Giza to the tombs of Thebes at Luxor, the glorious ancient Egyptian history has produced remarkable architecture. Sadly, tourists, numbering nearly four million per year, have taken a heavy toll on many of these ancient structures. Of particular concern are many of tombs located opposite Luxor on the western bank of the Nile. Digital reconstruction of these tombs has the potential of helping to document and preserve these important historical structures. Issues concernng new and unique problems involving the photographing and digital reconstruction of these tombs are addressed. Techniques for removing image distortions, recovering 3-D shapes and correcting for lighting imbalances are discussed. A complete reconstruction of the tomb of Sennediem is shown.
从吉斯的金字塔到底比斯的陵墓,古老埃及的璀璨历史就体现在这些著名的建筑上.不幸的是,每年近四百万的旅游者给上述古建筑,尤其是那些位于尼罗河西岸的陵墓带来了沉重的负担.用数字化技术帮助建立起传统陵墓的资料库,以便更好地保护这些重要的历史建筑.同时通过重建一个数字陵墓的例子,讨论了运用照片图像及数字建构技术应注意的新问题,例如需要消除图像的变形、矫正三维模型和调整光线的平衡等问题,来达到真实的数字感观.
