Epic Games RealityCapture is a state of the art all-in-one photogrammetry software solution that automatically generates beautiful and accurate 3D models from a range of ordinary images and/or laser scans.
RealityCapture runs on x64bit machines with at least 8GB of RAM, 64bit Windows 7 / 8 / 8.1 / 10, 11 or windows Server version 2008; graphics card with nVidia Cuda 3.0+ GPU and at least 1GB VRAM. Detailed specifications…
Epic Games RealityCapture is a state of the art all-in-one photogrammetry software solution that automatically generates beautiful and accurate 3D models from a range of ordinary images and/or laser scans.
… and mix different inputs to create a visually consistent triangular 3D model. No restrictions.
RC's new software release 1.4 aims for photogrammetry-, SFM- and 3D specialists requiring the highest precision and speed.
Since 1.3:
– Improvements to a renderer for showing large models in the 3D viewport*
– Faster mesh calculation**
– RealityCapture Online Help Section link
– Improvements and fixes for a seamless transition to Unreal Engine 5 and speed-ups in the reconstruction process**
*dependent on GPU VRAM
**up to 25% speed-up in the mesh reconstruction process
The photogrammetry software RealityCapture is extremely fast, has a highly modern and innovative core and a number of unique features – a power package that is changing the industry!
Go beyond the 3D limits of what can be achieved with photogrammetric methods with amazing speed, quality and accuracy at low computer hardware usage. Registering images, calculating meshes, texturing, parallel projections, DSM, geo-referencing and coordinate system conversion are just a fraction of what you get with RC.
Laser scanning meets state-of-the-art photogrammetry – all in one package. Laser scanners are natively supported within the application and are also fully involved during the position estimation of a camera or laser scanner. This results in truly unbeatable accuracy.
Super-fast design mode that aligns 500×12 megapixel images in less than 10 minutes on a notebook, right on the spot. Combine all types of data – images, laser scans, aerial photos…
Analyze directly on site and get what you need efficiently.
Create 3D models from photos, combine them with drone images and laser scan data for a fast and high-quality result! Create virtual reality scenes, textured 3D meshes, orthographic projections, geo-referenced maps and much more from images and/or laser scans completely automatically with the photogrammetry software RealityCapture.
In Tarasque processes have been optimized for faster calculations — more specifically for depth maps. The new UserInterface UI enhances the functionality by switching to ribbon based navigation corresponding to the context of your active window — 2D, 3D, Help, etc. It’s a step-by-step walkthrough of the calculation process, while being able to refine and troubleshoot within each step. Also, some new troubleshooting tools are detecting misaligned cameras, visually seeing camera position uncertainties and controlling LODs (level of details).
Work effectively and isolate and calculate volumes and areas, view contours and create elevation profiles, calculate and export contour lines and cross sections, enable slope shading in terrain etc.
Key features in the last version 1.3:
Selected New Features:
And much more!
Option to create an ortho projection rendered from images rather than textured/colorized mesh.
Orthomosaic EditingAllows to select a region and specify which cameras should be used for the orthomosaic generation – to fix possible visual issues, remove cameras that captured a moving car/person you don’t want in the orthomosaic.
Profile MeasurementsDefinition and elevation profile display of a drawn polyline/shape, identity of high and low points within the selected area.
Volume MeasurementsSelect a region, specify the base plane type and measure cut and fill volumes – useful for topographical surveys, identifying how much groundwork needed to level an area, as well as stockpile measurements.
ContoursAbility to display contours(isolines) to visualize the height profile of the displayed orthographic projection – users are able to set the min and max altitude and contour intervals. Giving a visual representation of how the land is falling and where the high and low points are – useful for topographical surveys and engineering workflows.
Cross SectionsCross sections are mainly used within GIS workflows – they basically provide you with multiple profiles of an area along a specified plane – these can then be exported as shapefile/dxf format.
Cut by BoxAllows to remove triangles inside/outside box or slice.
Misalignment Detection ToolA new option within the Inspect tool that can visually highlight camera misalignments.
Optimized LOD and add LOD Texture FormatNew border decimation setting in Simplify Tool Option to keep border intact on simplification (keep original number of vertices along the borders, or make new simplified border) Ribbon 2.0 Other than that RC 1.2. version comes with major UI Improvements, as well. One Export, UX Improvements, better tool grouping
Faster depth maps calculation Ribbon 2.0 Additional Selection ToolsPolygon, Polyline, Adjustable Brush
Unlimited number of photos, unlimited scene sizes, unlimited detail. Algorithms automatically divide the problem into smaller parts that best fit your hardware.
RealityCapture brings great freedom to your work. Just concentrate on your goals and let the software do the rest. You don't have to limit yourself to a small number of photos because RealityCapture is amazingly fast. With the appropriate computer equipment, the calculation of several thousand images is possible.
Capturing Reality is now part of Epic Games. This has simplified the licenses at a mega great price point! Buy RealityCapture seats at ArcTron – an official reseller.
* The prices shown here may not be the final prices and may be subject to additional tax.
** You can use the application offline without any restrictions. The app sends a small amount of statistics like the number of photos, scans or triangles only when exporting the results.
*** You can use the application and export the results without restrictions in a fully offline environment.
