Basics of 3D modelling using Agisoft Metashape software -Tutorial 1300-TPMAM
1. Basics of data acquisition by means of a photo camera: factors influencing the quality of the obtained models. Basics of taking correctly technical photos.
2. Taking pictures independently, using the available photographic equipment.
- managing the proper camera settings
- mastering the lighting settings;
- work with an automatic table controlled by a Raspberry Pi 4 computer;
- use of a shadeless tent
- adding markers.
3. Getting to know the possibilities and requirements of Agisoft Metashape software
- making 3D models on the basis of a self-collected set of photos from a photo camera.
4. Working with Agisoft Metashape
- aligning images
- building a point cloud;
- creating a polygon mesh based on a point cloud;
- creating a polygon mesh based on depth maps;
- correction and decimation of the obtained grids;
- applying texture;
- adding markers and working with them;
- performing measurements (dimensions, volume, sections) on the obtained models (point clouds);
- export of the model
5. Methods of presenting the model
- models will be published on the Sketchfab 3D model presentation platform

Learning outcomes
The student is able to:
- Plan and take a set of photos using a camera for creating 3D visualizations.
-Create a 3D model on the basis of photos taken by yourself using the Agisoft program, in particular correctly perform:
• alignment of photos;
• build a point cloud;
• create and work with a mesh ;
• add markers;
• measurements of the obtained object (dimensions, volume)
• export to various programs
- Present the visualization made, taking into account its purpose (movie clip, illustration, etc.)
