He asked for the “blackbox that takes set of images as an input and produces a 3D model as an output.”
That black box is Object Capture API, which takes a folder of images and outputs an USDZ (or OBJ) file. Model I/O isn’t necessary.
Kudos to Apple for releasing a photogrammetry pipeline that allows web and app developers to build tools like this, with zero knowledge of 3D reconstruction required.
- schappim 5y agoYou're not wrong (althought we do use ModelIO a lot). I just saw that you're from https://www.aboundlabs.com https://www.aboundlabs.com and metascan.ai Your scans look great! So how does your black box work?
- secretsatan 5y agoI’ve just been trying out the photogrammetry session, it’s super simple to use. I think Apple’s photogrammetry software isn’t as advanced as other’s, but it is free and works well small scale. I work in the same field, making a capture app for photogrammetry software
- schappim 5y agoYeah what Apple's has is a clear lead on the time required to build objects. I think that the photogrammetry side of things, the "give me an object now" will shift towards mobile device camera apps. It is only serverside now due to power requirements.
- secretsatan 5y agoIf they make the api available on ios it will be a game changer, i’m hoping they’ll make it available for the m1 chipped devices
- schappim 5y agoThe rumours say they're putting m1 level devices in the the headset. Again the power budget is the only issue!
