BTFDBB: BTF Datenbank Bonn und Messlabor
OBJECTS2011 Datasets
Here you can download the BTF and structured light data of the four objects presented as examples in:
Christopher Schwartz, Michael Weinmann, Roland Ruiters and Reinhard Klein "Integrated High-Quality Acquisition of Geometry and Appearance for Cultural Heritage", VAST 2011.
Please acknowledge or cite this work when using the datasets.
All datasets are free to use, modify and re-distribute for research and scholarship purposes. Furthermore, it is allowed to publish images made using the models or the BTF data in a scholary article or book, as long as proper credit is given to the University of Bonn's BTF Database. The Buddha dataset represent an artifact with religious and cultural significance to hundreds of millions of people and improper use might affront them. Please respect this fact and try to avoid potentially offending usage.
Any usage of the datasets for commercial purposes is not allowed without our permission and in some cases the permission of third parties.
