5. DVD to 3D - Photogrammetric Modelling

6. When detailed information and drawings are unavailable, photographs become an important tool in documenting a building. With an interest in photography and image manipulation, I have been researching photogrammetry in an effort to recreate scenes from a combination of sources including movies, home videos, news clips, and stock footage. Using Photosynth and the Photosynth Toolkit, I have extracted images from these sources to create meshes and ultimately 3D models of sites from around the world. These include prominent landmarks such as the Pantheon, the Colosseum and the Statue of Liberty to more organic forms such as Mount Rushmore. With development of this technology, 3D models of entire cities or states could be automatically generated by collecting images from Google, online photo collections, news footage and film. With the development of 3D models, a deeper understanding of the space can be gained.
