Abstract
We have constructed a thermal stereoscope utilizing three digital SLR cameras and an infrared camera for rapid surface reconstruction of diabetic foot geometry and temperature distribution. A structured light pattern is projected on to the foot to provide approximately 2500 reconstructed points. The reconstructed point cloud is then fitted to a finite element model, producing root mean squared errors of less than 0.4 mm.
