gap in the alignment process
« on: January 04, 2015, 06:48:36 PM »
hello everyone ,
i'm doing some tests with a 3 camera setup & a turntable using, i'm facing the same problem with everything i scan, which is there is an area around the model that doesn't get images aligned , in this attached model, i took a shot every 10 degrees , im not worried about the model itself since its a bit shiny but i'm worried about the process as a whole , hope some one can give some input on how to get around this & why i am getting this glitch

Hi Edward80,

do you have seen this tutorial: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9_F-b2hxP_o ?

Additional:
-  It looks like your images covered only 20-30% of your object. Fill your images which as much object as you can (go closer with your camera) to get a higher resolution and more tie points between images.
- use a newspaper, cork ore something like that with a good texture instead of your white paper (with numbers?) under your object to help PhotoScan with the alignment.
- lift it a little bit above the ground to avoide color coruption or shadows.
