Title: Bundler-compatible image list
Post by: leszekp on December 29, 2013, 01:29:38 AM

I'd experimenting with using PhotoCloud for enhanced visualization of 3D models.

To generate a PhotoCloud-compatible file, you need a MeshLab .mlp file with camera positions and a point cloud. You can create this by loading a bundler output file and image list file into Meshlab along with a point cloud, then saving it in .mlp format. Photoscan generates bundler output, but not the image list file. Is there any chance you can add bundler image list export to Photoscan? Or even better, .mlp export? Thanks.

I agree that a bundler_list.txt type export would be pretty useful...

It is just a list of the photo filenames, so for now I use a short grep and sed command to do the job if you export the cameras as an .xml file:

grep "<camera "   cameras.xml  |  sed 's/\"/ /g'  |  awk '{print $3, $5}'   >  cameras_list.txt


Hope that helps
