Anyone ever do any photogrammetry? I kinda got into it when I got my new Samsung phone, it has a TOF sensor that does some basic 3D scanning. That led me to downloading Meshroom and having fun with that. Most of it turns out garbage, but it's still pretty neat.

Yeah I really wanna have a decent crack at it. You can also use it to scan the inside of a room for example.


PLUS scanned models are very fun to play with.

My brother was really into photogrammetry last year, and went around photogrammetising tons of stuff like rooms at his work and people and food and stuff. He used some fairly expensive software, but it did an amazing job. Then when he was on holiday he used it with his drone to shoot footage of neat places he visited (like this place) and then imported the models into Unreal so he could run around and show everyone his holiday in VR.

I wonder if you could use that software on footage from films and TV to build 3d models of locations they were filmed at? You'd need lots of shots, or the camera to be moving around a decent amount, but would be insanely cool if it was possible.

i’ve seen some examples of using film footage as the input data to extract partial models of the environment they shot.

because the software doesn’t care about making things manifold or solid or whatever, it works well cos there’s no expectation that you need to “complete” a scan to use it.

Yeah I've tried to do a couple rooms in my house with tons of photos that gave okay-to-bad results in Meshroom, but meanwhile when I put in 3 photos I had of my old desk at work it came out perfectly.

I've been wanting to put movie frames in for awhile but never can think of a good scene, and I think people moving around can muck it up. Plus it's trickier when the software doesn't get to know the exif data of the photos. I put trinity's kick from the matrix through last week though and it... Kinda worked? :pwn:

I think so, but honestly there are so many options that I just read as much as I needed to know to use it a year ago and haven't paid attention since. I just add my photos, select Akaze, uncheck Force CPU Extraction, and walk away with my fingers crossed that it doesn't get an error that I have to google

I'm pretty sure Ian Hubert or cgmatter did it with video once and they made sure to only use like every five frames or something to avoid redundancy

thats how my bro did it. You don't have to move slowly either, just make sure its bright enough to not get motion blur. Reflective, super glossy or transparent stuff gives software trouble too, but that can give you fun glitches and stuff.

as for what to scan go and find an old building and do some urbex!

oops lol thought you were still taking about photogrammetry

You can, but I find burst mode on the phone's camera to be easier than extracting frames. This was 370 photos, but I only used 74 and meshroom didn't even use 32 of them.

i am!

yeah it’s trippy to think for example that you can’t take a picture of a metal, but only a picture of anything it’s reflecting 🤯

yeah i wonder if that’s why so many people scan rocks

I’m gonna re-scan my cactus with many more photons than before

is redundancy a problem or just a waste of cpu time to integrate redundant images

if you add a remesh modifier before the decimate you’ll even out the concentration of vertices

I'm an idiot but I'll say I avoid it 90% because of waste of time, 10% because I've had issues before but iirc they were mostly because Meshroom makes such a giant file it fills my hard drive. But I think at least once I did have an issue where it was trying to find too many matches or something?

echinopsis posted:

Yeah I should've done that; I was in a rush so I just decimated down to 0.1 or so because any more made it unrecognizable, didn't think about remesh though.

Anyway now I'm out of town so y'all make your own and do it better because it's fun and I want to see more

Maybe add a bunch of geometry and a voronoi displace on the text to make it look pitted?

perhaps. I wanted to run a fluid sim on the sand so instead of using shader displacement I used geometry modifiers to “apply” the displacement, which works except simply couldn’t lock in the details like if I did pixel subdividing. so the sands mesh is less detailed than the textures would encourage it to be
