Full-body 3D scanning simplifies the acquisition of digital body models. However, current systems are bulky, intricate, and costly, with strict clothing constraints. We propose a pipeline that combines inner body shape inference and parametric model registration for reconstructing the corresponding body model from a single front scan of a clothed body. Three networks modules (Scan2Front-Net, Front2Back-Net, and Inner2Corr-Net) with relatively independent functions are proposed for predicting front inner, back inner, and parametric model reference point clouds, respectively. We consider the back inner point cloud as an axial offset of the front inner point cloud and divide the body into 14 parts. This offset relationship is then learned within the same body parts to reduce the ambiguity of the inference. The predicted front and back inner point clouds are concatenated as inner body point cloud, and then reconstruction is achieved by registering the parametric body model through a point-to-point correspondence between the reference point cloud and the inner body point cloud. Qualitative and quantitative analysis show that the proposed method has significant advantages in terms of body shape completion and reconstruction body model accuracy.

The screening of chemical libraries is an essential starting point in the drug discovery process. While some researchers desire a more thorough screening of drug targets against a narrower scope of molecules, it is not uncommon for diverse screening sets to be favored during the early stages of drug discovery. However, a cost burden is associated with the screening of molecules, with potential drawbacks if particular areas of chemical space are needlessly overrepresented.

Limited research exists on the 3D geometric models and aerodynamic characteristics of the Grey-headed Albatross (GHA). Despite existing methods for extracting bird wing cross-sections, few studies consider deflections due to aerodynamic pressure. With the GHA known for its exceptional flight speed and purported wing-lock mechanism, it offers a valuable subject for studying fixed-wing aerodynamicsin nature.

Micro air vehicles (MAVs) capable of high-speed autonomous navigation in unknown environments have the potential to improve applications like search and rescue and disaster relief, where timely and safe navigation is critical. However, achieving autonomous, safe, and high-speed MAV navigation faces systematic challenges, necessitating reduced vehicle weight and size for high-speed maneuvering, strong sensing capability for detecting obstacles at a distance, and advanced planning and control algorithms maximizing flight speed while ensuring obstacle avoidance. Here, we present the safety-assured high-speed aerial robot (SUPER), a compact MAV with a 280-millimeter wheelbase and a thrust-to-weight ratio greater than 5.

The misalignment between the geometric and optical axes, combined with rotational asymmetry, poses significant challenges for achieving high-accuracy measurement of the off-axis aspheric mirror during the fabrication and polishing processes. To address this issue, this paper presents a method based on stereo deflectometry for measuring the figure of the off-axis aspheric mirror. In this method, point cloud of the off-axis aspheric mirror is first obtained using stereo deflectometry.

Optical information synthesis, which fuses LiDAR and optical cameras, has the potential for highly detailed 3D representations. However, due to the disparity of information density between point clouds and images, conventional matching methods based on points often lose significant information. To address this issue, we propose a regional matching method to bridge the differences in information density between point clouds and images.
