I need to display 3d sculptures in my application, but all I will have

  • 0

I need to display 3d sculptures in my application, but all I will have initially is 2d images of sculpture from different angles( angle and count of images is under our control)

1.
Is there any library which can do that, e.g. take 8 images from all side and stitch it into a 3D model?
Any opensource/commercial library/product is ok.

2.
Alternatively how difficult it would be to do if I start from scratch? what direction you would take e.g.

Simple solution one

3D model is not a strict requirement, but the end result should be that user can rotate the object and see it from different angles
so a simple solution could be to snap 100s of photos from all angles and change them as user changes angle
but it would be very cumbersome to convert many sculptures.

    There was a question on Super User that asked:

    “Is there any free/open source software that converts photos to 3d models?”

    but is has since been deleted. (It’s here for anyone that has > 10K rep on SU)

    From the accepted answer:

    I think insight3d does exactly what you are asking for.

    Having been involved in 3d graphics in the 1990s and early 2000s I would have said that you wouldn’t have found anything suitable as it is a very hard problem.

    However, I checked out the insight3d site and it does seem to be legitimate.
