In computer vision, photo-consistency determines whether a given voxel is occupied. A voxel is considered to be photo consistent when its color appears to be similar to all the cameras that can see it.Jianfeng Yin and Jeremy R. Cooperstock, A New Photo Consistency Test for Voxel Coloring, Proceedings of the Second Canadian Conference on Computer and Robot Vision (CRV’05), IEEE Most voxel coloring or space carving techniques require using photo consistency as a check condition in Image-based modeling and rendering applications.
