Overview
RealityCapture is a photogrammetry software for 3D modeling using camera images or laser scans. It produces high-resolution and realistic 3D models, processing at speed with minimal hardware requirements.
This instructor-led, live training (online or onsite) is aimed at design engineers, architects, or video game developers who wish to use RealityCapture to create 3D models for gaming, architecture, or other visualization projects.
By the end of this training, participants will be able to:
- Set up the necessary development environment to start creating 3D models with RealityCapture.
- Learn how to implement the photogrammetry workflow for producing and reconstructing realistic 3D models.
- Export and upload 3D models to VR and AR content platforms, such as Unreal Engine, Sketchfab, and Cesium ion.
Format of the Course
- Interactive lecture and discussion.
- Lots of exercises and practice.
- Hands-on implementation in a live-lab environment.
