Prototype Single-Camera Close Range Photogrammetry Rig

Exhibition and operation of a prototype, portable, single-camera, close range photogrammetry rig for the digital capture of small to medium sized objects.

The equipment and process allows very high resolution 3D models with photorealistic surfaces to be created from a number of digital photographs.

"Academic staff member Naomi Dines will bring an element of her current research project to the Tate Exchange, setting up a portable, single-camera photogrammetry rig in the Switch House, and using it to create digital 3D models of a range of physical objects from the CSM archives. Naomi has been using the principles of industrial metrology and engineering to solve problems inherent in the photogrammetry process, and to reduce the cost, time and labour involved. Experiments with automated motion control, precise geometric alignment, assistive computer-coded devices and image focus-stacking, have helped to make the process more efficient, accurate, and predictable for the precise capture of challenging objects."
