Abstract

To analyze non planar surfaces or reliefs, one can use stereoscopic or confocal methods. In this paper, we present another method based on scanning electron images and on the knowledge of the transfer function. This function can be estimated and modelled. Good agreements have been obtained on simulated images.

Keywords : modelling, non planar surfaces, relief, SEM image, surface area, transfer function
