Photogrammetry Software Comparison 3D Models

This collection compares the results of photogrammetry-based 3D software, all at least free-to-test, some free for non-commercial use, some fully open-source.

The rules:

-Has to have a GUI that even an idiot like me could figure out, or really good instructions

-No limit to the number of images that could be used. (Memento passed this when it was in beta. Now, it would not.)

Based on the same set of 80 images. This is a relatively small set of images, and not particularly well-lit. A reasonable test of software.

All models processed locally: Windows 10, Intel 6700k 4.0ghz cpu, 16GB RAM, 2GB Nvidia GTX 650 Ti gpu.

The software:

Autodesk Memento (now Remake)

VisualSfM

Regard3D

MeshRecon

PPT-GUI

(Photoscan coming soon hopefully.)
