Create 3D Models directly from images…<\/p>\n
I have not tried this out yet – but it sure sounds interesting.<\/p>\n
Here is what the Autodesk site says…<\/p>\n
Autodesk ImageModeler image-based modeling software enables architects, designers, and entertainment content creators to quickly and easily create 3D models from 2D digital images or panoramas.Use ImageModeler to capture the reality as-built:<\/p>\n* Reconstruct photorealistic objects, scenes, and cities
\n* Integrate CAD projects with existing environments
\n* Take measurements of buildings<\/p>\n
The software\u2019s easy-to-learn, three-step workflow\u2014calibration, modeling, and texturing\u2014lets you achieve, stunning, photorealistic modeling with real-world accuracy. Additionally, ImageModeler 2009 offers support for Autodesk\u00ae 3ds Max\u00ae, Autodesk\u00ae Maya\u00ae, and AutoCAD\u00ae software.<\/p>\n
Calibration<\/strong> Modeling<\/strong> Texturing<\/strong>
\nCalibrate the software for one to many pictures by matching a few points between the images. There is no need to input information about the camera.<\/p>\n
\nThe modeling tools in ImageModeler are simple. A 3D model is generated using polygonal primitives. This model can then be refined by the user and detail added.<\/p>\n
\nPhotorealistic texture maps are automatically extracted from the pixel information of the source images.<\/p>\n<\/address>\n
