In this study, we present a new and innovative framework for acquiring high-quality SVBRDF maps. Our approach addresses the limi-tations of the current methods and proposes a new solution. The core of our method is a simple hardware setup consisting of a consumer-level camera, LED lights, and a carefully designed network that can accurately obtain the high-quality SVBRDF properties of a nearly planar object. By capturing a flexible number of images of an object, our network uses different subnetworks to train different property maps and employs appropriate loss functions for each of them. To further enhance the quality of the maps, we improved the network structure by adding a novel skip connection that connects the encoder and decoder withglobal features. Through extensive experimentation using both synthetic and real-world materials, our results demonstrate that our method outperforms previous methods and produces superior results. Furthermore, our proposed setup can also be used to acquire physically based rendering maps of special materials.
