Need to create a 3D model of an object but your CAD skills aren't quite up to it? Just have a unique object that you want to capture in 3D? Photogrammetry might solve your problem! In this workshop, we'll walk through how you can use a regular camera to capture enough data to generate a detailed, textured model from (nearly) any real-world object using a free, open-source piece of software called Meshroom.
