3D in your hands.. ;)

We live in the 3D innovation era. First, carton movies were made by 3D techniques, and then cinema’s screens were modified to give you the experience of watching a real 3D movie as if you are a part of the scene. The 3D features also invaded our homes by the new generation of these televisions which enable us to watch a 3D movie while lying on the sofa . It comes also to mobile phones. Many of us have watched some advertisements about a new 3D I-phone under the manufacturing.

For many years we used to take 2D photos or videos & make many edits to modify them. When the 3D movies appeared, it was not only an entertainment feature but also a new technique that needs professional workers & a continuous progress. What if an ordinary photographer & computer user can convert any 2D captured pictures for a certain object into a 3D entity?? 3DSOM enables you to do so

3DSOM pro is a marvelous program that is used to generate 3D objects. Use your camera to take many photos for any entity from many viewpoints, then load them into the application & create your 3D picture. 3DSOM can deal with various objects as shapes with holes & asymmetric organic shapes.

By using 3DSOM you can export your 3D object into the standard formats to import the developed shape into any 3D scene. There are some available formats to publish your true 3D object into web & develop any website by adding 3D shapes. You also can use industry tools to render 3D models as movies for DVDs, web streaming, exhibitions and marketing material.

You may think that you have to be an expert to use such a program. The good news is that you only have to follow 5 easy steps to create a high quality 3D object. The steps are:

1-The Photo Shoot: put the object at the center of the 3DSOM Pro mat which can beprinted directly from the software with variable size. Use a plain background to ease the masking of the object. Take from 15 to 30 photos by using a conventional camera.

2-Masking the Image: Upload the taken photos into the 3DSOM software & it’ll easily extract the object from the background. If the image quality isn’t high or the shooting conditions weren’t ideal, it’s not a problem as there is a new set of masking tools for this case.

3-WireFrame Generation: The surface generation wizard helps you to automatically generate a high quality triangle mesh model (the solid geometry onto which texture maps will be added).

4. Generating the Surface Texture: It’s time to add textures to your shape & collect all information & details about your object from the taken photos & combine colors to generate the final entity. A powerful Copy & Paste feature is available to paint the textures into the object. You may copy & paste from many graphic programs as Photoshop.

5. Exporting the Final Model: After finishing all the required edits on your project, you can now export it to many suitable formats for a web page or any other applications. A 3D java viewer is available to allow fully interactive, plugin-free 3D content to be published easily.
