In this talk recent work in addressing non-Lambertian effects in photometric stereo is presented. This comes along with investigations of how to resolve effectively some of the numerical problems encountered in that process. Thereby also integration of surface normals is considered. The proceeding is mainly based on partial differential equations arising in orthographic as well as perspective models.

This presentation is part of Minisymposium “MS57 - Recent Trends in Photometric 3D-reconstruction (2 parts)”
organized by: Jean-Denis Durou (IRIT, Université de Toulouse) , Maurizio Falcone (Dipartimento di Matematica, Università di Roma "La Sapienza") .
