I / Function

Multi-view stereo reconstruction library for producing dense point clouds and textured 3D meshes.

OpenMVS is a reconstruction library that turns camera poses and a sparse point cloud into a textured three-dimensional mesh. It supplies dense point-cloud reconstruction, surface meshing, refinement and texturing for photogrammetry workflows. Its scalable Python pipeline splits scenes that exceed available memory into smaller reconstructions, then merges their results.
