Hello,
In the recontsruction panel, there is “adaptative blending”, “smoothing”, “radius” and "filter strength).
Can you elaborate on thoses settings (what are the units, how does this affect result)
?
I know that usually thoses settings does not need to be changed by the used but I like to understand and I have a particular project that need to be improved :
I have a scan of stones with lots of web spider that are moving. The resolution is very low (1024x768) and the image source is noisy (bad sensor). Obviously I can’t retake pictures.
Can I tweak thoses parameters to imporve the mesh quality ?
Thanks
Ben
Hi Benny,
there you can find some information about questioned settings:
The Adaptive blending start setting is useful mostly with laser scans and metric data, and it determines the level of detail that is going to be created. The higher the value, the greater the detail. Based on the information I got from our developers, it is highly possible that this setting will be removed in the future, and that it is not recommended to use a non-default value (0.45).
The Smoothing setting works similarly to the Smoothing tool. The higher the number, the smoother the model will be. Still, I do not recommend using a number lower than 1.
Since models are created from triangles, this could leave some unwanted holes or protrusions that do not correspond to reality at all. Therefore, I recommend using the default values. Here are some comparisons done on one of the sample datasets downloadable from our site.
Smoothing = Default (1.5)
Smoothing = 0.5
Smoothing = 4
Filter radius and strength under Mesh filtration dropdown menu have been added long time ago due to a request. These settings honestly should not be modified at all and you can ignore them. Sorry for the confusion there. I could not even get any in depth information regarding these two as they have no point to be modified and are set correctly.
We don’t recommend to use such small resolution for model creation. I think tweaking doesn’t help in this case, as the data are not ideal.
