I would like to know if Reality Capture has a tool for Camera Calibration. The images I am using are spherical because they are HDR 360 images. Previously, I used Agisoft, and now I am learning to use Reality Capture. However, I cannot find this tool, which makes the output look quite odd. If anyone knows, please help. Thank you very much.

Hi @ArtF412  
RealityCapture doesn’t have such tool, but the images are calibrated during the alignment process (you can also export the results of such calibration).  
Unfortunately, RealityCapture doesn’t support 360 images, but it is an asked feature.

Thank for question I’m clear. I will hope this feature come to recently.

Hi @OndrejTrhan , regards of callibration, is there any difference in using known parameters, and leting RC do it automatically?

Hi Rango, basically there is a difference, as in the first case those parameters are not computed and are directly used.  
It could help but also cause some issues in the alignment process. It depends, how precise are the parameters.
