QUOTE
Capturing depth to represent detailed surface geometry normally requires expensive, specialized equipment and/or collection of a large amount of data. By trading accuracy for ease of capture, the authors of this paper aim to recover surfaces that can be plausibly relit and viewed from any angle under any lighting. This multiscale shape-from-shading method takes diffuse-lit and flash-lit image pairs, and produces an albedo map and textured height field. Using two lighting conditions enables subtraction of one from the other to estimate albedo. Experimental validation shows that the method works for a broad range of textured surfaces, and users are frequently unable to identify the results as synthetic in a randomized presentation."

Actually, yes. I wonder if it would be possible to create this.

Then again I have no 3d experiences haha
