I thought I needed a NVIDIA card to build the 3d model only. If I understand the workflow, then I also need one to build a non ‘melty’ looking ortho mosaic as well, as it seems when I am in Reconstruction, and click under process normal detail it complains I do not have an nvidia card. So I can select Preview Detail, and render a very bad looking orthomosiac from that, is this correct workflow result? am using the demo.
In RealityCapture, the Orthomosaic is created by generating a new image from the top down view of the 3D textured mesh.
Therefor, the higher quality your 3D mesh, the higher quality your Ortho will be. Hence you need a CUDA enabled graphics card to follow the workflow you want to perform.
