In this series I’ll review three other Autodesk solutions as part of my new mission to explore Reality Capturing: 123D Catch, ReCap 360 and Memento ReMake.Īll three solutions can be used for Photogrammetry, a technique that uses a series of regular digital photographs to generate textured 3D objects. They’re all different interfaces that presumably use the same cloud-based 3D solving engine (using the Smart3DCapture technology licensed from Acute3D which is now owned by Bentley Systems). They also make nice mobile apps: I use Autodesk’s Pixlr app on a daily base to edit my mobile snapshots. Autodesk Animator was actually the first animation program I used back in the 1990s on my very first MS DOS computer (its 8-bit goodness makes me realize that we’re currently making a lot of trendy animated GIFs for our client’s online marketing at the animation studio I co-founded-nothing changed!). The company is probably best known of its industry standard software Maya and 3ds Max, but also makes many, many more applications for creative technologists. If you have any interest in 3D, you know Autodesk. Bellus3D Face Camera Pro (IR Sensor, Android).
