Frame extraction from video file
« on: July 25, 2017, 12:10:55 PM »
Dear PhotoScan Team,

Thanks to my work in PhotoScan and around photogrammetry for the 6 last month, I was able to established some automatic or semi-automatic procedures for all kind of projects my firm handles.
Since, we have many different projects to go further in those developments.

For some specific applications, we would like at some point to delegate the data acquisition step. Given that photogrammetry surveys require well defined way of taking pictures, we would like to go deeper with video usage. Indeed, for those specific applications, FHD or even 4K video would give us enough resolution and accuracy, while removing the fear of "not enough covering set of pictures".

Some topics and many works have discussed and showed it's satisfactory to work with video, and even some photogrammetry softwares (but Pix4D for example) have implemented tools to extract desired frames from a video, directly in their environment (no need to add another software in the procedure).

Are some similar tools in the development pipes in Agisoft ? Would be a nice add on and help to retain customers ;)
