Measurement of fluorescence by 9-eye camera

We propose a method for decomposing reflective and fluorescent components and generating an image relighted by illumination that is different from that in the image-capturing environment. Our method uses nine-view stereoscopic multiband imaging technology instead of hyperspectral imaging. Operations in the spectral domain are not necessary. Experiments were conducted using eight-band imaging systems. Experimental results show that the decomposition of reflective and fluorescent components and relighting were successful, which confirmed the effectiveness of our method. This technology can be applied to digitally archive cultural heritage, create digital contents for e-commerce, and confirm the authenticity of commercial products.
