Doe Test with ReCap

2/27/2018

Thoughts

This mesh looks pretty good at a distance, but there are several parts where the geometry is very distorted. The next step after this is to use zBrush to clean the mesh, but I am still very new with zBrush and worry about fixing the mesh.
I do have plans to retry creating the mesh using Photoscan and comparing the two outcomes. More on that soon. Overall, the outcome has me very excited.

Autodesk ReCap Review

Every software has its perks and flaws. It's good to know my thoughts on the software because it can speed up workflow for future projects. This is my first time using ReCap and my only other photogrammetry software experience is from PhotoScan.
