Tiivistelmä
The objective of this thesis was to design a reliable pipeline to generate 3D models through photogrammetry that fulfilled the demands and addressed the limitations of current real-time engines. This meant not only to study the current documentation and define the best practices to approach photogrammetry projects, but also to experiment to assess how robust the process was.
As part of this experimentation process, three photogrammetry programs were assessed and compared. Besides the mentioned comparison, a thorough method for optimization of the generated 3D maodels was demonstrated and explained in detail.
The results of the comparison of the photogrammetry programs showed that RealityCapture, one of these programs, consistently provided better results over Agisoft Metashape and Meshroom. The described method for optimization successfully provided a 3D model that fulfilled the requirements of current real-time engines.
Photogrammetry proved to be a fast and reliable method for generating 3D models. The process showed advantages in quality and speed over more traditional methods for creating 3D models.
