renderMask()
« on: September 27, 2023, 04:30:20 AM »
Hello,

What does the chunk.model.renderMask() function actually generate?  Is it point cloud confidence (from requested point of view)?

I am looking for a way to generate point cloud confidence data at camera location, so I can mask camera RGBD images based on confidence.  Any help would be appreciated.  I am using Metashape 2.0 pro version.

Thanks!

Vkam

Hello Vkam,

This function works in a similar way as GUI operation Import Masks -> From Model:

Basically you can say that the existing mesh model is projected on the image and mask is applied to the empty areas (that do not contain projected mesh elements).

Hi Alex,

Thanks for your response.  Is there a way to generate confidence numbers for a camera location, that go along with the depth values for camera RGBD data?
