After completing this course, you will be able to create 3D models with texture of your own by using free and open-source software (Meshroom & CloudCompare). The provided principles or workflow can also be applied to other photogrammetry software (Agisoft PhotoScan, RealityCapture, ContextCapture, 3D Zephyr, SURE …). You will be able to share 3D contents on any social platform, create stunning video rendering and trade in various online 3D store. All resources, photographs and 3D models used on this course are shared via a folder. Step-by-step tutorials are also provided as an ebook, and podcasts are made available.

Key concepts covered include:

• How to take photos for 3D reconstruction purposes with a low-cost camera
• Master essential processing aspects of photogrammetry and learn how to create deliverables (2D, 3D, rendering)
• Hands-on best open-source photogrammetry tools for free 3D reconstruction (Meshroom, CloudCompare)
• Apply a full workflow from acquisition to sharing/selling your 3D digital creations online, using free software
• Learn the potential of photogrammetry and discover tools and techniques to scale up your business

Additionnal information:

This course is designed for beginner to intermediate user, to show the process of creation of highly detailed 3D models with texture. No knowledge is required.

• You need a computer, preferably with Windows OS
• A Camera (a Smartphone w/ 8+ MP is also viable)
• a PC w/ Nvidia GPU (recommended), 8GB RAM (16-32GB+ makes faster processing)
