Hello and Welcome! You’ve reached a blog about the history, physics and technology of photography and optics, with the occasional sprinkle of Linux- and machine learning-related topics. Well, that’s the plan. My initial projects have been quite Linux-centric but that will change very soon.

3D Reconstruction: Introduction to Meshroom [Video]
This is the third video in the series about 3D Reconstructions and in this video we’ll discuss the first half of Meshroom’s pipeline, we’ll talk about CCTags for automatic scaling, and we’ll talk about what changes when we use a Turntable. Finally, we’ll have a look at using known camera positions to improve the reliability…

3D-Reconstruction: Building a small, simple Turntable [Video]
In this video we’re building a small and simple turntable that we can use to take photos of an object in regular intervals. By combining the turntable with gphoto2 most of the process happens automatically. This is the second post in a series about 3D Reconstructions. The first post gave an overview of what we’re…

3D Reconstruction: Intro and Image Acquisition [Video]
This is the first video of a series about 3D Reconstructions. We’ll use the open-source Photogrammetry program Meshroom and a home-built machine to take pictures of an object in regular intervals. Over the entire series we’ll look at and test which factors affect the quality of our reconstruction. I’ve found 3D reconstructions fascinating for a…
Latest Projects
Some projects take quite a while to describe so there are multiple posts. Below you’ll only see the first post of a series. That should make it easier to find the start of a project.
