AgiSoft StereoScan

Overview

AgiSoft StereoScan is an easy to use 3D modeling tool for automatic generation of textured 3D models from individual stereo pairs. The stereo pairs are not required to be calibrated or aligned, and can be captured by hand from any generic positions. Based on the close-range photogrammetry methods, StereoScan automatically calibrates the images, including camera positions and lens distortions. Both image alignment and 3D model reconstruction is fully automated.

Besides the image-based 3d modeling, StereoScan can be used for alignment of anaglyphs and side-by-side stereo pairs. The processing of stereo shots from FujiFilm Real 3D W1 stereo camera is also supported.

Supported input formats: JPEG, TIFF, PNG, JPS, JPEG Multi-Picture Format (MPO).
Supported output formats: Wavefront OBJ, 3DS Max, PLY, VRML, COLLADA, Universal 3D, PDF.

For a more advanced image-based 3D modeling solution from multiple photos or stereo pairs, take a look at AgiSoft PhotoScan.

System Requirements

Quick Tutorial

  1. Start the program. Depending on the format of your images:
    1. For stereo pairs stored as separate left/right image files, use Open Left/Right Images... command from the File menu, or click on the toolbar button.
    2. If you are going to process a stereo pair, stored in the side-by-side stereo file, or in the Multi-Picture Format MPO file, use Open Stereo Image... command from the File menu or click on the toolbar button.
  2. Switch to the 3D view using toolbar button. Select the target 3D model quality in the Build 3D Model dialog box and press OK button. Processing can take some time (less than a minute for a tipical image). Processing status is displayed in the progress window.
  3. After the reconstruction is complete, the 3D model is displayed in the main window. Use mouse to rotate and/or zoom into the model.
  4. Optionally, you can edit a model using selection and cropping toolbar buttons.
  5. After all unnecessary faces are removed, you can decimate the model using Decimate... command from the Mesh menu. In the Decimate Mesh dialog box specify the target number of faces, which should remain in the final model. Click on the OK button to start decimation.
  6. An edited and decimated model can be saved in any of the supported formats using Save 3D Model... command from the File menu. For example, you can save the model in PDF format for easy sharing.
  7. The more detailed documentation is available with the program or in the Online Documentation pages.
