The goal of this work is to build an end-to-end system for structured
light 3D scanning under a broad range of global illumination effects, such as
inter-reflections, diffusion and sub-surface scattering. We have designed
structured light patterns that are resilient to individual global illumination
effects using simple logical operations and tools from combinatorial mathematics.
Scenes exhibiting multiple phenomena are handled by combining results from a small
ensemble of such patterns. Our methods can be readily incorporated into existing
scanning systems without a significant overhead in terms of capture time or hardware.

The scene shown above has significant global illumination in the form
of interreflections and sub-surface scattering. Conventional Gray codes and
phase-shifting result in errors at points receiving inter-reflections.
Modulated phase-shifting produces errors on translucent fruits. In contrast,
the depth map computed using our techniques is nearly error free. Please see
the compilation of results below for more examples.
