A system that aids us in making high quality computer graphics with ease is desirable in the field of creating digital contents. Our MEMS texture-scanner will easily get detailed texture information from real objects by measuring physical characteristics on the surface: roughness, reflection, interference and so on. A new method for expressing high quality texture and a handy type device built by MEMS (Micro Electro Mechanical Systems) techniques are expected in this research.
