Using your digital camera for more than just photos!

Autodesk Labs is at it again! Do you have an object, room, or even an entire building you want to view in Autodesk products? Project Photofly is a new technology preview on Autodesk Labs that may be able to help. This preview allows you to take a series of photos of an object, and Photofly does the rest by "stitching" the photos of the object together to create a 3D cloud point model.

Highlights

• Allows anyone with a digital camera to create near accurate 3D models from photographs using the web.
• Utilizes common point and shoot digital cameras.
• Harnesses the power of cloud computing to translate photos into detailed 3D models.
• 3D models can be manipulated by design software (e.g., AutoCAD, Inventor, 123D).
• Allows sharing through YouTube, iPad, iPhone, and iPod Touch.
