Photogrammetry Software: A Comparative Review of COLMAP and Meshroom
摘要
As virtual reality gains momentum, the need to efficiently render 3D environments has become increasingly important. Historically, getting a 3D scan of a room has required LiDAR equipment as well as a 360-panorama camera with complex interpolation and stitching to create a rather rough image. Advances have been made, both academically and commercially, in the ability to use 2D images to create 3D models of a location. This paper provides an overview of two open source photogrammetry software packages, COLMAP and AliceVision Meshroom.
