Face-scan, all if fine except the hair

[cosinus-7]

Hi all
First thanks for a very good software, as far as I can see. I am in the last 7 days  for testing, but I am quite sure, I will buy this nice soft. 

I have troubles to create a proper face-modell. Yes, I have read a lot and have seen a lot videos, but I am not successful.
Means, the face and eares and eyes and so on are great.

But whatever I do, the back and the hair, there is always a hole.

Has anybody an idea, what I do wrong? Would be very nice, any ideas or tips are welcome.

That you see it better, I attach 3 files, I am sure, you see, what I mean.

Thanks in advance.

Hm, no answer.
Maybe I did write here something wrong, sorry then.

5 days left for the trial AgiSoft.

I hope still on at least one answer.

Hello cosinus-7,

According to the top screenshot from the Photo view mode there are problems with the sufficient number of valid matching points for the camera locations taken the pictures from above.

I think, you might need to increase the number of pictures and overlap for the top part of the head. Also check the images and the camera settings, that ISO is low and the area of interest is not out of focus or blurred.
Also you can increase the effective resolution of the images, when taking photos of the head in portrait camera orientation.

Hi Alexey

That is very nice of you to answer! Thanks a lot!! 

So it seems for me, that it should be possible to create such a head WITH hair.
And with your tips I have new hope, that I can get this.

I am a professional photographer, hence resolution, ISO and focus should not be a problem. 

Therefore I have to be more exactly with overlap and take more pictures from the top.
BTW, all other things (eyes, forehead and so on are very good, from my point of view, although the model had to sit stil for around 90 secondes.

Thanks again, hopefully the model has time again for a shooting, before my trial is finnished.
Again, a really good software, congratulation.

Hello cosinus-7,

You can also check the following video-tutorial related to the head scanning with the single camera, as it contain quite a lot of useful tips:

Also I've made a quick search on Sketchfab for head scanning examples that have hair:

Alexey,
The vimeo-video is really very interesting, though for a non-native-english-man like me not that easy to understand. But very good.

Only a sidemark, from your 3 sketchfab-examples (thanks!) has only 1 full hair, the other two seemed to have also problems, the last looks a bit like mine.

I wonder, if I should give a bit "streak light" in the hair, so that AgiSoft has better to find points.
But I will look further.
Thanks again.
