Wrecked in Second Life
A while back I nearly didn’t answer the phone. It was one of those international numbers and I didn’t recognise it but something told me to pick it up. I spent the next 30 minutes chatting to John Kinsella of Ocean Divers in Ireland all about 3D reconstruction and how it could be used in Read more about Wrecked in Second Life[…]
Return to Depth
Short discussion on first dive after COVID-19 lockdown and using UWIS tracker for 3D reconstruction and improving local accuracy of model with adjustments to tracker unit location.
You need an App for that
It should come as no surprise to find we like efficiency. Anything that makes life easier will always be welcomed with open arms and the UWIS navigation system does just that. Maintaining efficiency carries on above the waves. Every single image is traceable back to the project or subject and retrieval takes seconds. Its part Read more about You need an App for that[…]
The Show Must Go On
Discussion on remote photogrammetry of a Lancaster bomber propeller during lockdown using masks to improve model quality
Deep View
UWIS underwater GPS navigation continues apace with real-time viewing of 3D wreck models during a dive.
The Art of Knowing
Discussion on UWIS navigation and Metashape photogrammetry using depth maps
From Here To There
Underwater GPS being used to reconstruct 3D photogrammetry models.
Accuracy Defined?
Underwater GPS meets Photogrammetry For a while we have been using GPS located cameras to construct highly accurate models of defensive structures known as pillboxes. Fixing a camera position above the waves is straightforward enough and you can build representative models without additional scale bars or measurements if the GPS signal is accurate. The problems Read more about Accuracy Defined?[…]
