Abstract

BACKGROUND: For virtual skincare using a touch feedback interface, reconstructing a 3D skin tactile surface from a mobile skin image is imperative for a dermatologist to palpate the skin surface that presents tactile characteristics of the subcutaneous tissues. However, the precise tactile reconstruction from a single view image is a challenging research problem due to varying illumination conditions.
