CLI Sample Scripts

Many features of RealityCapture can be used directly via the command line or by running a script. They are passed to the application as parameters of RealityCapture.exe and executed in a sequence.
Below you can find some sample scripts they might help you to set up scripts for your own workflows.
For the full manual regarding command-line interface, please check in-app help, section Command-line Interface.
You can find many sample datasets on which you can test these scripts here

Calculate 3D textured model

This script consists of following processing steps:

• load images
• align
• set reconstruction region automatically
• calculate normal detail model
• select marginal triangles
• remove marginal triangles
• rename selected model
• calculate texture (and unwrap)
• save project
• export model
• quit

Processing of datasets from fixed camera rig (full-body scan) using texture layers

Download [97 KB] - only CLI scripts

Download [2.7 GB] - 4 sample datasets including CLI scripts

These scripts consist of following processing steps:

• load images from calibration dataset
• automatic detection of coded targets
• import ground control points to preserve the coordinate system among all scans
• alignment
• export XMP files (to re-use them across scans)
• save the project
• loading geometry and texture layers for all other datasets (processed one by one)
• enabling camera prior information from XMP files
• setting the layer which is going to be used for texturing
• alignment
• loading the reconstruction region
• reconstruction in normal detail
• simplification to 1M triangles
• texturing the simplified model using the texturing layer
• exporting textured model
• saving the project

Texture reprojection from high poly to low poly model including creating of normal and displacement maps

This script consists of following processing steps:

• load images
• align
• select a component with the most amount of cameras in it
• automatically create a reconstruction region
• reconstruction in normal detail
• rename created model
• texture created model (this will also create unwrap)
• simplify created model to a specified number of triangles
• rename simplified model
• create unwrap for simplified model
• reproject texture onto a simplified model (including creating normal and disaplacement maps)
• select simplified model
• export simplified model
• save project

Delegation of commands into an open instance of RealityCapture

For more information on how to control the opened instances of RealityCapture via command line please check in-app help and search for "Delegation of commands".

These scripts consists of following processing steps:

• check the running instance of RealityCapture
• load images into an open instance in batches
• align individually-export components and XMP files
• import components
• calculate normal detail model, simplify, calculate texture
• export model
