visualsfm:a Visual Structure from Motion System

Changchang Wu

VISUALSFM is a GUI application for 3D reconstruction using structure from motion (SFM). The reconstruction system integrates several of my previous projects:sift on GPU (SIFTGPU), multicore Bundle adjustment, a nd Towards linear-time Incremental Structure from Motion. VISUALSFM runs fast by exploiting multicore parallelism for feature detection, feature matching, and bundle adjustment.

For dense reconstruction, this program integrates the execution of Yasutaka Furukawa ' s Pmvs/cmvs tool chain. The SfM output of VISUALSFM works with several additional tools, including Cmp-mvs by Michal Jancosek, MVE by Michael Goes   Ele's group, sure by Mathias Rothermel and Konrad Wenzel, Andmeshrecon by Zhuoliang Kang.

Reconstruct 3D with a few button clicks, and watch the dynamic reconstruction process!

You still has the option to run from command line without a gui!
