![]() As you can see below, the cloud solved not just Teddy, but also parts of my living room. You can review the finished capture in an interactive 3D manner. I’m confident that “practice makes perfect” is totally true for photogrammetry and you’ll quickly learn which setups suit certain objects after a few mistakes. Sure, it’s never nice to wait but what the Autodesk servers do in minutes, would probably take hours to process on even the fastest desktop computer-and isn’t even realistically possible on a smartphone. And after a lot of “cloud thinking”… success! I moved Teddy over to another-and more 360°-compatible-table, put him on another of my daughters perfectly trackable belongings and repeated the process. I figured either my table top was hard to track in combination with the similarly colored parts of the bear or my goldfish Ed (who lives in an aquarium on this table) ignored my instructions to not move while he was in frame. The info panel gives you some general tips, but there’s no way to find out what went wrong specifically for this capture. Then, when it was almost done, I got this error. Processing Teddy took about half an hour. This depends on the complexity of the photo and how large the queue of Autodesk’s cloud is. You literally have no idea how long it will take. And that’s where photogrammetry can get a little bit frustrating. Now all photos are uploaded to be processed by the cloud. The indicator can be switched off, allowing you to take up to 70 photos from any angle you like.Īfter hitting the checkmark you get the possibility to review the photos and retake the ones that clearly failed. #123d models seriesThe indicator shows two 360-degree indicators: one for taking a series of 18 photos straight at your object and additional 6 photos from a downwards-facing angle. The nicest feature of Catch is that it guides you through the photo-taking process by using the gyroscope in your phone to determine which angles you’ve done. After a one-click login with your Facebook, Twitter, Yahoo (yes, Yahoo!), Google, Linkedin or Microsoft account, you get a few easy-to-understand instructions and can start taking photos. I could only find information about older non-mobile versions of 123D Catch that downscaled the photos to 3 megapixels, so I’m assuming that’s still the case.įrom the beginning it’s clear that this app is designed to make reality capture quick and easy. ![]() The Nexus 5 I used has an 8 megapixel camera, but judging the upload speed I’m guessing the photos are downscaled before uploading. #123d models androidI used the Android version (1.2.1) for this review-on my old Nexus 5, because it’s incompatible with my new Nexus 5X due to a camera issue. 123D Catch is the capturing member of the family and is available for iOS, Android and Windows. From web-based design apps to tablet-based digital sculpting. 123D is Autodesk’s collection of entry-level 3D apps.
