Hi. I've been trying to get 3D files of a 1957 chess set. I've tried using different cameras, i've floated the camera around a stationary piece, I've built a scanning turntable, I've adjusted lights, I've used a DSLR, I've limited sources of varying light... Nothing works. Eve more frustrating is that the more effort I put into getting good pictures, the worse my Point Cloud turns out.
My avatar is an example of the most recent attempt. What am I doing wrong? In this case, i took 44 pictures, used Masquerade to get only and completely, the chess piece. Three of those 44 pictures were used by 3D Zephyr, and the point cloud appears to have about 10 points. Compare that to my first attempt where I used four quick shots using an iPhone 4 and got a good 25% of the entire model.
I'm so frustrated! What am I doing wrong? All the tutorials show people just snapping pictures without care and getting great results.
I'm open to suggestions, and will even share the pictures and masks of my last 3 attempts to get a point cloud. I'm at wits end. All suggestions are willingly accepted.
Oh, one thing I was hoping would teach me what a good vs bad photo would have been the Image Quality Index utility, but it isn't one of my menu choices. I'm using the Free version.
