The Cake is 3D – Food Photogrammetry Guide

Scanning foodstuffs can be fun and sometimes even useful. 3D asset creation for VFX, VR, and gaming industries is the most obvious use case, while showing off your homemade cake to your friends and family in 3D is more of a niche proposal.

Travel Photogrammetry - More Fun than 2D Photos

Sometimes a 2D photo does not do justice to a moment or a place, and you wish you had something more… dimensional. Something that captures shape, texture, and the little details that flat images tend to flatten even more.

How Many Photos Are Enough for Photogrammetry?

The photo amount is an essential metric in photogrammetry. Pixpro Photogrammetry Software, for example, bases its subscription tiers mainly on this metric. More data to crunch means more resource consumption and generally more demanding projects.

Manual vs Automated Photogrammetry Flights – When to Use What

Photogrammetry flight planning has never been more accessible. With new tools like Pixpro Waypoints and a slew of dedicated enterprise drones, the options for capturing a photogrammetric dataset are more flexible than ever. But that also raises the question: Should I fly manually or rely on automati

10 Things I Learned from Doing Photogrammetry Every Week

I have been doing photogrammetry almost every week for a while now — sometimes planned, sometimes completely improvised. Buildings, roofs, towers, terrain, interiors — whatever the job calls for. This post is not a tutorial. It is just a list of things I have learned over the past few years.

Where do we use Photogrammetry? A list of 3D scanning use cases.

​Photogrammetry has revolutionized numerous industries by transforming real world scenes into 3D models, using only simple photographs and processing algorithms.

Architectural Heritage Photogrammetry - Preserving Small Details

Architectural heritage preservation is a critical component of cultural heritage conservation. Preserving small details of historic buildings has always been a challenge for conservationists. Photogrammetry is a non-destructive technique helpful in documenting architectural heritage by creating high

Macro Photogrammetry - Combining Multiple Techniques

Macro photogrammetry requires combining focus stacking, cross-polarization, and 3D image capture methods to scan small objects successfully. It is the most time-consuming and laborious type of photogrammetric 3D scanning.

Event Planning with Photogrammetry

Anyone that has been in the event planning space, knows how intense things can get. Managing human resources, equipment, logistics, participants and crowds. And every event planning journey starts with the venue or the location.
