Hi Sung,
is your rig fixed? In RealityCapture you can export XMP files - classical extended meta file - extended with our tags with cameras parameters. XMP’s are associated with images, e.g. if you have
image1.jpg
image1.xmp
then the system will automatically load image1.xmp with image1.jpg and it will set camera parameters.
You can actually define whether the camera pose is fixed, should be optimized or it is simply not defined (simply delete the XMP file).
What is it good for? If you have a rig with almost fixed camera poses (not necessary perfect),
- take some well textured objects,
- capture images,
- define scale, define ground plane and
- align images.
- then export XMP files. You can optionally delete XMP files corresponding to cameras which you typically adjust.
Reusing data:
- take pictures of some other model and name images the same way like in the previous scenario,
- copy previous XMP files to the folder with images
- and align scene. It will take just a fraction of time, since almost all is already calculated.
scene will come in the same coordinates as the previous one. You can load reconstruction box, clip scene, calculate model,…
You can do this all using CLI version automatically.
