ReconstructMe
ReconstructMe is Windows software for real-time 3D scanning and reconstruction. Move a supported sensor around an object to digitize it, from a human face to an entire room. Scans use metric units and export to STL, OBJ, 3DS, or PLY. Color from the scanned object can be captured when the sensor supplies a color stream. Listed sensor families include ASUS Xtion, PrimeSense Carmine, and Microsoft Kinect, with Intel RealSense R200 and F200, Orbbec Astra and Astra L, and ASUS Xtion Pro and Xtio also supported. Its C-style SDK supports real-time and multi-sensor applications, OpenCL GPU scanning, mesh noise removal, hole closing, triangle reduction, and CSG operations. Marker detection and tracking can identify real-world positions or place a scan volume relative to a room marker. Unlicensed SDK output carries watermarks and mesh generation is delayed. A recent graphics card and driver are required for hardware-accelerated real-time computing. The non-commercial scanning application costs nothing.
