For those in the US that have access to a TV with the History Channel, there is a television series named Project Impossible that Autodesk helped sponsor showing our customers as well as some Autodesk employees on some large projects.…
I was involved with a large project. I ended up laser scanning the building in a couple days capturing the building in full 3D using a FARO Focus3D LiDAR. The contractor compared my scans to the Revit BIM model from…
The U.S. Bureau of Reclamation and Autodesk Inc. just won the 2018 USGIF Government Achievement Award. Some Autodesk employees (including myself) led by Pete Kelsey were involved in the 3D capture and modeling of the Glen Canyon Dam. The…
An API for Reality Capture is available on the Autodesk Forge platform to create 3D models from photos using photogrammetry just like ReCap Photo (aka formerly Autodesk ReMake). Now you can build this same functionality into your own Forge platform…
If you are using the former Autodesk ReMake updated with new abilities and UAV support, you will be interested in the updated version released just this week. ReCap Photo is included with your ReCap Pro subscription. Autodesk ReCap Photo update…
Last week at Autodesk’s Design Night Sheffield, FARO had their first ever LiDAR 3D Photo Booth for good fun. The booth setup used multiple FARO Focus LiDAR scanners to scan from various positions. LiDAR is generally used to capture buildings,…
Last week we flew a UAS (drone) over a old historic building being renovated in Portland Oregon. We captured 279 photos in two short 15 minute flights and automatically generated a 3D textured model and Ortho corrected TIFF files using…
Yes, Dam excited about this special Hoover Dam Field Trip and you can join us at Autodesk University 2017. Join the Dam tour and endure the long list of bad Dam puns I have, but it will be totally worth…
Autodesk ReMake is evolving to Autodesk ReCap Photo. Autodesk ReCap Photo will be part of ReCap Pro for both your LiDAR scan data and photogrammetry data. In addition to the great 3D mesh editing that was in the former ReMake,…
Just over a week ago I got to use the new Leica Geosystem’s BLK360 laser scanner on a project. After having used other laser scanners in the past, and some being not only very expensive but also heavy and cumbersome…
