High-Fidelity 4D Cloth Capture Pipeline with a Two-Level Pattern

摘要

Capturing cloth motion with high fidelity is challenging due to fine-scale wrinkles, large deformation, and frequent self-occlusion. We present a 4D (spatio-temporal) cloth capture system that achieves 1 mm spatial resolution using only 16 RGB cameras. Our approach uses a two-level marker pattern: sparse, colored L-shaped markers provide robust detection and orientation, while dense noise patterns within each marker enable both marker identification and precise keypoint localization. By unwarping detected markers to a canonical frame, we factor out perspective distortion and most of cloth deformation, allowing the localizer to achieve sub-pixel accuracy. The localized keypoints are triangulated across views to form an incomplete point cloud. A physics-based optimization then deforms a template mesh to match the captured geometry while maintaining penetration-free constraints and physical plausibility for occluded regions. Our method produces temporally coherent sequences that faithfully capture fine wrinkles and folds even during complex motions with self-contact.
