Thank you very much! Wouldn’t it be Great and valuable to the community to have 1 lesson, exercise, or someone with a problem you can help and show us how to tackle the problem per week? Or maybe we can download a data set from the RC WEBSITE and we make the model, the week later you show us the correct way and why you do it this way. 70% Of us use the default settings and don’t know what to do with Some problems. It would be great to teach us like this one. A lot of people Will learn faster and use RC more because the results Will be There! The clients will be more happy, more work, more use of RC. Thank you, I learned a lot today!
-
Incredibly helpful and informative. Thanks!
-
I only 5 days ago asked if any good tutorials are available to understand RC settings better , and presto this shows up.. Excellent, love the explanation of his thinking and I learnt so much.. Thank you, More like this please..
-
Очень полезно и информативно!!)
-
A very helpful webinar, thank you a lot! Perfect for medium advanced users, simple und clear language i was able to understand without any problems. You really enlightend some topics that where confusing sometimes. I guess there is always more to learn and with videos like this, its actually fun. Thank you again and keep on going this way. RC rules! ;)

Clean & Organized, thank you for this webinar. It was very informative.
-
Thank you for the Webinar. Looking forward to the next one!
-
Excellent tutorial! I have learned so much, thanks for making this webinar. I would love to see more tutorials like this in the future.
-
That was a very informative webinar. Thank You. Please make one which covers getting best geometry from photographs for object scans
-
This was really useful!
-
I really like the Texture Reprojection function inside RC: is it possible to use it with any external model (not scan)?
-
What dlsr and lens you would recomend to buy for photogrametricals jobs. My nikon D5200 with 18-105 mm is not very good ant focusing (39 focus points)...
-
You are saying that the parse point cloud is not a problem, but would it be possible to have a project only made of point clouds, without ever making a mesh? And view it on a web browser for example? Or in SketchFab
-
Are the CLI scripts you showed available online?
-
Hi, I exported E57 files from Faro SCENE and attempted to import them into Reality Capture. However, Reality Capture refused to import the point cloud file. Did you use any specific settings when exporting the point cloud?
-
Reality capture not aligning images only says finished. please help me!
-
I didnt see how are you merge laserscan data and terrestrial photos components. I have same project now but i have trouble with merging laserscans and photogrammetry component. Notice, my scans without RGB....
