Exploring Three Innovative 3D Scanning Methods: Manual Capturing, Auto Capturing, and Video Recording

Introduction:

With the continuous development of technology, 3D scanning plays an increasingly important role in various fields. Today, we are introducing an innovative 3D scanning app that allows users to generate high-quality 3D models through multiple methods. Whether it's manual capturing, auto capturing, or video recording, we provide users with convenient and accurate scanning options. Let's delve into these three exciting techniques.

Method 1: Manual Capturing Upload

Manual capturring is one of the most traditional 3D scanning methods. Users simply use their phone's camera to take a series of photos while rotating around the target object, and then upload the photos to our server. Our algorithm automatically matches, aligns, and reconstructs these photos, ultimately generating an accurate 3D model. Through manual photography, users have the freedom to choose the angles and distances of the shots, ensuring a comprehensive capture of the object from multiple perspectives. This method is suitable for various scenarios, such as art reproduction, architectural measurement, and product design.

Method 2: Auto Capturing Upload

Our app also offers a more convenient scanning method: auto-capturing upload. Users simply need to aim their phone's camera at the target object, without pressing the shutter button. The app automatically recognizes and captures photos, which are then uploaded to the server. This method utilizes the phone's gyroscope to detect the object's feature points, enabling automatic photography. The gyroscope, an internal sensor in the phone, senses the device's rotation and orientation changes. Our app utilizes gyroscope data to precisely track the user's phone movements. As the user rotates around the object, the app automatically recognizes and captures the object's feature points, taking photos at the appropriate moments. This method maximizes the hardware capabilities of the phone, providing users with a more seamless and hands-free scanning experience. Users simply need to rotate their phones around the object, and the app will automatically handle the photography and uploading process. Automatic photography is ideal for scenarios that require rapid scanning of numerous objects, such as rapid prototyping, e-commerce, and game development.

Method 3: Video Recording Upload

In addition to photos, our app supports 3D model generation through video recording. Users only need to aim their phones at the target object and record a video while rotating around it. The recorded video is then uploaded to our server. Our algorithm analyzes each frame of the video, extracting key information and processing it to generate a high-quality 3D model. This method captures subtle temporal changes in the object, making it particularly useful for dynamic presentations, such as animation production, virtual reality, and motion capture.

By offering manual capturing, auto capturing, and video recording as three innovative 3D scanning methods, KIRI Engine app provides users with flexible, efficient, and accurate scanning experiences. Whether you're an artist, architect, or engineer, these methods enable you to easily generate high-quality 3D models for various applications. With the continuous advancement of technology, we believe that 3D scanning will play an even greater role in the future, bringing more surprises and convenience to users.

Note:

We are also developing another auto-capturing feature based on timed intervals. Users will soon be able to choose the desired time interval for taking photos in the app settings. For example, users can set the app to capture a photo every few seconds or every few minutes. This feature is suitable for scenarios that require precise control over the photo frequency while allowing users enough time to adjust positions or angles. Stay tuned for this exciting new addition!
