TeleSculptor

What is TeleSculptor?

TeleSculptor is a cross-platform desktop application that enables users to generate high-quality 3D reconstructions from aerial imagery and video. It employs a fusion of Structure-from-Motion, Multiview Stereo, Synthetic Aperture, and Photogrammetry algorithms to produce detailed depth maps and surface meshes. The application leverages metadata from GPS and IMU sensors, as well as image and video keyframes, to estimate camera parameters and 3D landmarks with precision. TeleSculptor's flexible plugin architecture allows developers to customize or replace any component in the processing pipeline, making it both a powerful end-user tool and a versatile research platform. Whether working with images or video, with or without metadata, TeleSculptor provides a robust and adaptable solution for accurate 3D modeling from aerial data

Highlights

• Fuses multiple depth mapping techniques (Structure-from-Motion, Multiview Stereo, Synthetic Aperture, Photogrammetry) for high-quality 3D reconstruction
• Utilizes metadata from GPS, IMU, images, and video to improve camera parameter and 3D landmark estimation
• Supports both image and video inputs, with or without associated metadata
• Flexible plugin architecture enables customization and experimentation with different algorithms
