This paper presents a new approach to explicityly use surface normal images (SNIs) in 3-D object model description and recognition procedure. The surface normal images of an object are defined as the projected images obtained from view angles facing normal to each surface of the object. The proposed approach can significantly alleviate the difficulty of obtaining correspondence between models and scene objects by explicitly providing a transform for the matching. The proposed approach is applied to the construction of a model-based 3-D object recognition system for the selected five objects. Synthetic images are used in the experiment to show the operation of the overall recognition system.
