Meshroom
ActiveDescription
AliceVision framework node-based 3D reconstruction visual programming toolbox for generating 3D models from images.
Key Features
- Node-based workflow - Blender-like visual node editor for combining algorithm stages
- Complete photogrammetry pipeline - feature extraction, matching, sparse reconstruction, dense reconstruction, meshing, texturing
- Based on AliceVision - academically validated open-source photogrammetry library, stable quality
- GPU acceleration - supports CUDA acceleration for dense reconstruction and depth estimation
- Batch processing - supports batch processing of large scenes (hundreds of photos)
- Multiple export formats - supports OBJ, PLY, FBX and other common 3D formats
Use Cases
💡 Cultural heritage preservation teams use Meshroom to reconstruct ancient building 3D models for digital archiving.
💡 Game studios generate initial geometric models of scene assets from real-shot photos.
💡 Architects use it to convert site photos into 3D reality models of buildings.
