I have used several. The latest was Autodesk's 123D Catch. I follow the photographing instructions using a tripod and a textured background. The problem lies in the reflected images and distorted transparency (refraction) giving the software false information about the 3D scene. Matt Lind also des

RE: Photogrammetry - what do you use?

Photogrammetry software needs to make assumptions when it has nothing more than color information. Specular highlights are going to be clipped/clamped to white or something similar. Therefore, if the software sees white, how is it to know whether it is a specular highlight vs. just something c

Hi Stephen, I am curious to why it does not work with transparent/shiny objects (havent really done any test with those kind of surfaces..). Do you mean thatthe calibration for the point cloud isn't accurate? what software & workflow are you using? Date: Wed, 4 Jun 2014 14:13:28 -0400 Subject:

Be aware that there is no Photogrammetry solution, that I have found that will deal well with transparent and/or shiny objects. I do a lot of product modeling, from prototypes, and I have not found any Photogrammetry solution that works better than taking front, side, top, and 3/4 view photos, and

Thanks for the answers guys. I've just tried both Recap 360 and PhotoScan Standard. Got a little bit cleaner mesh from Recap (holes were caped automatically, etc), but they were surprisingly similar.

I'm using it for scans of my face for some reference, since its more precise then scanning with Kinect, and it does a pretty good job with 60 jpgs ( turntable, using a 1100D reflex ), even with my crappy 4 years old i7 2.7 Ghz in 15 minutes I have the scan ready, without any masking on the pictures
