We are currently putting together a face scanner for research purposes using 10 Canon EOS 1200D camera's with EF 50mm F1.8 STM lenses. We'll be scanning 100+ people using this setup in a relatively short amount of time so optimisation is pretty important. I have a couple of questions that I'd appreciate some clarity on:
1) What would be the minimum recommended PC hardware for 3D model generation and texturing while keeping the processing time to reasonable time-frames?
2) There is also an issue with triggering the camera's simultaneously with minimal latency. The Esper ShutterCell looks like a good option. Can you use a garden variety remote shutter release connection such as the Canon RS-60E3 to trigger all of the camera's simultaneously when it's connected to the ShutterCell? Alternatively, to go one step further, can you just plug the ShutterCell into a computer and trigger all of the camera's via Breezersystems Remote Pro Multi-camera?
