We present a portable device to capture both shape and reflectance of an indoor scene. Consisting of a Kinect, an IR camera and several IR LEDs, our device allows the user to acquire data in a similar way as he she scans with a single Kinect. Scene geometry is reconstructed by KinectFusion. To estimate reflectance from incomplete and noisy observations, 3D vertices of the same material are identified by our material segmentation propagation algorithm. Then BRDF observations at these vertices are merged into a more complete and accurate BRDF for the material. Effectiveness of our device is demonstrated by quality results on real-world scenes.
2. @cite_6 assumed a parametric BRDF model while we use a bivariate BRDF model which is deduced from reflectance symmetries and is represented as a 2D table. Compared with a parametric model, the bivariate model is applicable to a wider range of real-world materials.

We present an interactive material acquisition system for average users to capture the spatially varying appearance of daily objects. While an object is being scanned, our system estimates its appearance on-the-fly and provides quick visual feedback. We build the system entirely on low-end, off-the-shelf components: a Kinect sensor, a mirror ball and printed markers. We exploit the Kinect infra-red emitter receiver, originally designed for depth computation, as an active hand-held reflectometer, to segment the object into clusters of similar specular materials and estimate the roughness parameters of BRDFs simultaneously. Next, the diffuse albedo and specular intensity of the spatially varying materials are rapidly computed in an inverse rendering framework, using data from the Kinect RGB camera. We demonstrate captured results of a range of materials, and physically validate our system.
