This Week: Photogammetry

This week we've finally started putting our project in motion. We've been introduced to one of our main processes for our upcoming project: Photogammetry! This involves taking a bunch of pictures of an object from all different angles (usually averaging about 300 images) and uploading all of the pictures to a 3d software that then pieces them together like a puzzle. The final result (at least from my first-time experience) is a janky little 3d model that can be exported and used in various projects.

Our class got together earlier this week to take photos of our objects and help each other in the process.

Then we headed to the labs and worked on learning the software, provided by unreal engine. I learned that I needed to take more photos for sure, but I also messed around with a few tools outside of the tutorial video, like the "close holes" tool and the "smooth" tool.

Additionally, we finally got to meet our future muses: we're working with the Crow Museum at the University of Texas at Dallas to digitize one of their artifacts. We were given a list to go through, and there were some clear favorites from the bunch.

As of writing this, we're meeting up with the museum tomorrow to view the artifacts in person and make our final decisions! (I personally am hoping for the little white ceramic dog) I've rented out my camera, and I'm ready to go!
