Abstract:
Objective: This study aimed to investigate a mature three-dimensional reconstruction technique using Cordyceps sinensis as an example, to establish the methodology for creating digital specimens of traditional Chinese medicine. This can lay a solid the foundation for digitizing traditional Chinese medicine samples and identifying their characteristics.
Methods: Based on the research results related to the characteristics identification of Cordyceps sinensis generated by the research team and survey of the existing literature, a characteristic identification evaluation method was designed. The key technical factors of three-dimensional reconstruction (measurement methods, repeatability and reproducibility, synthetic computation, digital specimen format, and color correction) were investigated. A methodology for constructing three-dimensional digital specimens of Cordyceps sinensis was established, and several types of samples (various origins, different completeness, diverse types) were subjected to three-dimensional reconstruction to validate this novel method.
Results: Through this methodological research, the application of three-dimensional reconstruction technology in the construction of digital specimens of Cordyceps sinensis was elegantly established. This method can accurately reproduce all the characteristic identification features of the physical samples. All the samples could be reconstructed into their corresponding three-dimensional digital specimens.
Conclusion: Overall, combining computer-aided three-dimensional reconstruction technology and methodology developed by us can create three-dimensional digital specimens of Cordyceps sinensis and provide a fundamental assessment for restoring the characteristic identification features.
