We propose a technique for gloss and normal map acquisition of fine-scale specular surface details, or mesostructure. Our main goal is to provide an efficient, easily pplicable, but sufficiently accurate
method to acquire mesostructures. We therefore introduce a setup consisting of cheap and accessible components, including a regular monitor and a digital still camera.
