Rhinophoto is a Photogrammetry plugin for Rhino and provides automatic 3D digitizing from a set of photographs.
You can now perform 3D digitisation with your Camera...
How does it work?
Rhinophoto automatically creates 3D points from a set of photos taken with positioned coded targets.
Each target corresponds to a Number. This Number is read by Rhinophoto from the photo and allows it to automatically create 2D points on the images at the center of the target.
Then Rhinophoto computes 3D point positions from 2D points on each images and creates Rhino 3D points.
Methodology
• Position a coded target at each point that you
• want to model.
• (~ 10 minutes for 50 targets / 100 Points)

• Position special coded targets representing
• the origin and one of the axes.

• Take a series of photos of the scene and
• copy all these photos into an empty folder.
• (~ 5 minutes)

|
• Run Rhino, then the Rhinophoto command
• and load a photo from the list.

• It's finished... Everything is automatic, after
• calculations (the time depends on the number
• of images but just a couple of minutes is
• sufficient), Rhinophoto creates the 3D points
• in Rhino.

• You can now model surfaces by the points
• with the standard Rhino Commands.
