3D Scanning
- Digitising an object from the real world
- capturing its shape and form
- create a high resolution 3D polygonal mesh
- Does not define the material of a surface
3D Scanning Setup
Different capture methods for different subjects
Static subject
- Single DSLR – Capturing all angles of a subject “i.e. building”
- UAV – Use an aerial camera device to capture angles from above
- Lidar – faro scanner
Moving subject 2D
- Synchronised stills capture from many angles
- Not mobile
4D
- Requires gen-locked video cameras
- Not mobile
- HUGE DATA!!
What Next?
- Incorporating motion capture into body scanning
- defining surface material from photos
- multiple lighting setups
- advanced automation
- rapid processing
- 4D enhancements
- Light field video
Watch for:
- Magic leap
- Microsoft hololens
- Reality capture
- Agisoft
- Nels Isrealson
- Hammerhead vr
- Timeslice films
- Autism and vr: 3dnovations
