Tips for Photogrammetry Capture:
Tips for Photogrammetry Capture:
1. Opt for static objects that maintain their shape during photography. Avoid very thin, highly
reflective, transparent, or translucent items. Soft, articulated, or bendable objects might
affect the matching process.
2. Employ a solid color background to enhance object isolation.
3. Utilize diffused lighting to prevent harsh shadows, ensuring even illumination.
4. Steer clear of hard light sources such as on-camera flash or direct sunlight.
5. Maintain consistent camera settings across all shots, and keep an equal distance for each
photograph.
6. Depending on the object’s size, capture a minimum of 20 to 30 images to ensure
comprehensive coverage.
