REALVIZ Image Modeler
Instead of modeling complicated geometry, materials and lighting
from scratch, ImageModeler® allows graphics professionals
to tap directly into the richness of the real world. The software
is the first high-end "Image-Based Modeler" to produce virtual
3-D models from photo, video and cinematic images.

Dimension 3DSOM Pro
3DSOM Pro is a powerful tool for creating professional quality
3D content from still images. A wide range of objects can
be modelled including those with holes and 'difficult' organic
shapes. Using a conventional camera, photos of your object
on a printed mat are taken from a number of viewpoints in
front of a plain backdrop. The shape of the object is automatically
extracted from each photo and this information is used to
build a high quality 3D mesh.
Canon
3D S.O.M.
3D S.O.M. automatically builds fully textured 3D models directly
from images of an object taken with a digital camera. In many
cases no editing of the model is necessary. One click and
a high quality textured model is generated in minutes! 3D
S.O.M. enables rapid 3D model creation at a fraction of the
cost of more elaborate hardware systems. No laser scanner
required. All you need is a camera, a tripod and the software,
which can be bought online from this site. Just click the
Order 3D S.O.M. link at the top of this page!

Systems PhotoModeler Pro
PhotoModeler Pro is the award-winning professional software
package for the creation of accurate 3D models, coordinates
and measurements from photographs. It is widely used
by professionals in the fields of accident reconstruction,
architecture, archaeology, engineering, forensics, webpage
design, and 3D graphics. PhotoModeler Pro offers powerful
tools that generate high quality 3D data of real-world
objects and scenes. A few of the advanced features include
automatic camera orientation, surface drawing, enhanced
file export, enhanced photo-texturing, cylinder and
curve modeling, and multimedia tutorials. These features
promise to keep PhotoModeler Pro firmly in the market
lead in quality and ease-of-use.
ShapeQuest
ShapeCapture
The creation of 3D models from images for visualization
and virtual reality applications has become very widespread
in computer graphics. Approaches in image-based modeling
and rendering have been demonstrated widely over the
past few years. Also several commercial software packages
are now available. However, most of these approaches
do not demonstrate high geometric accuracy sufficient
for applications other than visualization. ShapeCapture™
is a software tool that implements our approach to creating
highly accurate 3D models from images.

Vision Works D Sculptor
D Sculptor is a software product that allows the user
to quickly create sophisticated models of 3-D objects
using just the PC D Sculptor runs on and a photo camera.
You start with a number of photographs of the object
to be modeled. D Sculptor then helps you turn these
into a fully textured 3-D model which can be used in
a variety of ways including display on web pages using
a Java Applet as illustrated below. In this case the
model of the deer is undergoing auto-rotation but to
rotate the model yourself just drag (hold down the left
mouse button and move the mouse) over the model. To
zoom in or out. To move the model hold down [Shift]
while dragging and to zoom in or out hold down [Control]
while dragging up or down
Canoma
Canoma is Mac/Win software that allows fast creation
of photorealistic 3D models from one or more photographs.
The models are geometrically very simple, and their
purpose is not to replace any CAD or detailed 3D model,
but to augment it, for example with realistic 3D context
or to allow very fast 3D prototyping.
Precision
Lightworks Nverse Photo
Nverse Photo brings image-based modeling to 3ds max™ and 3D Studio
VIZ®. Now you can work with big, beautiful, full resolution raster
images (8000 x 8000 pixels, or even larger!) right in a max viewport.
All you do is define the features you want modeled. Nverse Photo
does the camera matching, constructs the 3D models, and automatically
builds texture maps for you. You decide what gets modeled, and with
how much detail. Nverse Photo makes it the right height and puts
it in the right place.
Sturning Software Image Sculpturer
Image Sculpturer is a very new application for creating 3d objects from ordinary 2d images. Instead of using an automatic approach like all the other image based modeling tools, Image Sculpturer lets the user do this very analogous task in a very effective and intuitive fashion. As a result Image Sculpturer should be much more flexible as the other tools because the human is in the interpretation of images unbeatable.
