Reality Capture Studio
more than creating images
For both props and actors that need to be created or enhanced with visual effects, our photogrammetry studio offers a quick solution to gathering a 3D volume of their shape. This is the perfect preparation for starting the design process.
Photogrammetry works by finding reference points on the surface of the subject, these include things as small as skin pores and the weave on a t shirt or trousers, if the subject is wearing clothes with very little or no surface detail then they will not scan well. Examples of this would be silk, tight plastic or rubber jump suits, shiny reflective surfaces on shoes, boots of backpacks.
After the process of texture blending, based on a properly unwrapped UV layout, the rig gives some amazing results and allows super crisp high res textures.
Horses for courses
