We recently worked on this Buddha statue project, creating a digital 3D model through the process of photogrammetry and then preparing it for 3D printing by the clients. Check out the different phases in this short video.
From the photographs taken, a point cloud is first created in Metashape, followed by the mesh building built, and finally the texture is added. Then we take a look at the model in a standard 3D printing software to see how it will do in the printing process.
