PROCESSING (Step 2)

MASHUP

(Downloads photosynth folder and import it to the MUSHLAB)

(Clean no use thing, and reconstruction church)

(Tranfer the color to the model)

(Clear the uncessary place)

(Make the hole of the model, door and window)
And save the model into .obj. Now finish the second step.
Open project in 3D MAX

In case, I chose the two churchs in Coogee. And since one of the church was with tower, it might be hard to create the whole facade by my camera. So I used this church to practice. And I selected 5 points front of the main facade and take 3 photos on each point. And the result of photosynth was perfect, 100%. (http://photosynth.net/view.aspx?cid=46d91732-f075-4532-acb9-74a1cbba9a26) You could see a nice 3-D facade of this church.

And use the same method, I finished my first step.(Photosynth)

First Assignment Idea

(The city of Manila in the second world war)

(Escolta in the war)

(The old Natividad Building was burned during the war)
Reference: http://manilahub.blogspot.com/2008/12/war-destructic

(One of the famous church in Coogee)

From the above black and white photos, the city and human was devastated caused by the war. And my idead was to create a reality church in the war and make people feel the importance of peace, that was why I chose the building surround us and the type of building, church.

Church should be the most beautiful and sacred place, if even this kind of building was destroyed and abandoned. That mean human destroyed their own beliefs. Human without faith was hopeless. And that was the war gave us 'Despair'.

Go Ahead (Meshup)

After had nice photosynthy model, use the program download and make the model in the meshup.

And in the program meshup, I got a nice 3-D model watch. Then clean the no use staff, use the method showing in the video by using 'select face by vertex color', select the grey color and delete all the surround watch staff.

And now select 'surface reconstruction poission', and change the octree depth to 10. And get the final model but without color. You could see the shape of watch and with some support ground

Now transfer the orginal color to the plaster. And save the project to .obj. And use the 3D Max to open this floder.

First Trial of Photosynthy (Watch)

In fact, the first project I was trying to set in the Photosynth was the PS3 control. And after the first time took the photos, i just had 30% value of synthy, and the point cloud was very poor and the angle choosen from camera was not contious, and can not show the project well.

So I improved the method choosen the angle of taking photo. Then the value of sythy was 100%, but since the control was too dark, the point cloud was still not well.

And I chose better and easiler object, watch. Since the watch had the numbers and several clear marks, it was easy to get high sythy, 96%. The point cloud was nice and show project clear shape.
