OBJECTIVE. APPLIED SCIENCE

CREATION

Creation is the core of our Applied Science division. 


Creation of what and by what means is always accomplished differently, from one project to the next.  

Our most frequently required services involve 3 distinct systems: Photogrammetry, 3D Printing, and 3D Scanning - and often all three together.

PHOTOGRAMMETRY

Manipulable and interactable digital reality created from 2D imagery.  The process has been around for decades, and it is made of two equally important components, data acquisition and object reconstruction.

To that end: our methodologies for acquiring data are industry leading, our reconstruction software is industry standard, and our hardware for processing is in the top 1% of privately owned mainframes in the world in raw compute power.  We are able to generate 100,000,000+ triangle models in hours that would take others days, if not weeks.

3D PRINTING

Sometimes you need a digital creation, sometimes you need a physical creation.  Sometimes you need both and that's why we have options.
If you have a existing .stl or .obj model needing topographic fixing
- we can help.
If you only have pictures of something you'd like created
- we can help.
If you have nothing but a concept of what you want created
- we can help.

3D SCANNING

Whatever subject needed, imported/exported however preferred.

We've done microprocessors and we've done skyscrapers.  We did a whole house room by room that the architect stitched back together.  We have 'prosumer' grade scanners in house; extreme niche needs will require additional lead time as the hardware will need procured.

 

Better science and better workflows provide the same superior results regardless of subject.

What we do:

*Worth noting - All web hosted files are massively reduced in size and quality from original creations.

The file the client receives is markedly cleaner and more detailed, typically by a factor of 10.*

We can create a single small facet of a subject...

...or the entire building...

...or the entire city.

HERE'S THE PROCESS:

THE SUBJECT

In this instance a building - we have the capacity to do things orders of magnitude larger or smaller.

We have completed projects measured by the millimeter and the mile.

THE DIGITAL CREATION

Using advanced photogrammetry techniques we recreate this subject in 3D, perfectly accurate to scale and able to be manipulated hundreds of ways. 

The aims a particular client has dictate how in depth and to what tolerances this entire process is kept within.  If a client needs a general understanding of an asset, we can deliver an accurate model and top down orthophoto in one or two days.  Alternatively, we could deliver a perfectly spatially-accurate, geo-referenced, 1:1 scale digital UV textured scan of your subject. We could import this model into specialized software that would allow you to access it in virtual reality and  "walk" the subject we were retained to create.  You could get a true "boots on the ground" experience from literally anywhere in the world.

 

We can also deliver a dozen options somewhere between these two.

We have all necessary hardware and software for the VR component in our office and we'd also gladly assist you in building your own VR system.

THE PHYSICAL CREATION

And here is the same subject, now printed with one of our specialty 3D Printers and available in the gift shop.
