Lately I have been shooting lots of photogrammetry environments, and more recently optimizing them for VR applications. These next two posts will document my workflow, which is very much a work in progress.

You can bring this outdoor street scene into Maya or any 3D package, using the 360 pano for IBL lighting, and the geometry of the street and surrounding buildings for […]

You can see the video above at YouTube, with the ability to tumble around 360, or even better on iPhone as the image moves when you do. Below are other […]
This is one of those Sunday projects where I want my computer to be rendering something cool, but I only want to spend less then an hour setting it up. Keep it simple so I can watch TV, and every 15 minutes check a render, like cooking or some such drivel. First step is to […]
Here is a new HDR of the interior of a church. It was pretty dark in there so I shot 8 photos per exposure wedge with some pretty long exposure times. Had to go as quickly as possible because the place is open to the public and people could walk in at any time. Currently […]
