Rhino® is a popular CAD and 3D modeling application used in many fields. PhotoModeler is a popular photogrammetry program for measuring and modeling the real world using a camera. A PhotoModeler project can be exported in the Rhino 3dm file format and further processed, or be used as the foundation for other work using Rhino’s […]
Why Surface Draw?Do you need to model, measure, or create diagrams of shapes that lie on a surface? This blog post and demonstration video will show you how to do this using a camera and PhotoModeler. PhotoModeler’s Surface Draw tools give you the ability to create 3D points, lines, and curves by marking on a single […]
A PhotoModeler Tip is a short video introduction to one feature in PhotoModeler. We have published regular tips in the past, and we are getting back to that again. PhotoModeler Tips are useful for regular PhotoModeler users as the tips describe some of the more useful, powerful, but sometimes hidden features of the program. Tips […]
When you have a sequence of images containing data/evidence spread over several frames recorded from the same position, for example, a series of frames from a fixed security camera, you can use PhotoModeler’s image sequence feature to measure or track objects in the scene over time! Here are some possible uses: Calculating and comparing the […]
Instructional tutorial videos are a great way to learn PhotoModeler. We’ve recently done a few updates to the PhotoModeler tutorials: A new forensics single camera tutorial Some new voice overs Key videos on YouTube Newest Tutorial Video for Forensics We recently published a new tutorial that will be of interest to those doing forensic measurement […]
When two or more cameras, affixed in un-moving positions, are used in a project, the images taken by these cameras can be replaced in the project without having to re-orient them. Doing this can save time and effort for project setups or camera rigs that are reused repeatedly. This procedure of swapping images on fixed […]
Surveillance cameras are ubiquitous in public places. Crimes and/or the suspects participating in them are often captured on one or more of these cameras. Measuring the height of a suspect in a scene is usually a key piece of evidence in identifying the individual. PhotoModeler can be used to accurately measure the height of a […]
Do you find yourself adding the same layers and/or materials to each of your new PhotoModeler projects? Or do you need a way to organize most of your PhotoModeler projects the same way – so that you can more easily separate or group items and display them in isolation? If yes, or if you don’t […]
PhotoModeler has an interesting photogrammetry visualization tool for assessing the geometry and the structure of a 3D solution. This tool is called “Rays” – short for ‘visualized light rays’. A light ray is shown in the 3D View as a solid white line and portrays the vector that light would have traveled from the point […]
A recent update added the ability to use Point Auto-detect for Control point marking and Multi-point Transform point marking. This tool can help speed up marking and referencing, with the right kind of project and photos. External data is sometimes used to set up a coordinate system or help with the solution. The external data […]
