The most handsome "black" technology: let ordinary mobile phones scan 3D

Perhaps in the eyes of Microsoft's Principal Investigator Shahram Izadi, the arrival of the enhanced and virtual reality world is not marked by the Oculus Rift. Only when the threshold is low enough, new technologies can be more widely accepted by more ordinary people.

At Microsoft Research, he and his colleagues developed a way to turn a regular phone into a 3D scanner. Any mobile phone - whether it is Windows Phone, iPhone or Android phone, after loading their R&D system, only the camera and processor that comes with the phone, do not need to be connected to the Internet, rely entirely on local computing power and image processing capabilities. , you can scan 3D items.

The system is called MobileFusion. From the appearance of the filming, "It is not much different to take a photo with a common mobile phone. But in fact, it is already a complete 3D model," said MobileFusion research team member, Oxford University. Dr. Peter Ondruska introduced the student.

Ordinary people take pictures like this:

Don't look at most of the devices, the iPhone's rear camera resolution is only 8 million pixels, but the accuracy of the scan is still no problem. Project member, Microsoft Research Principal Researcher Pushmeet Kohli, revealed that the quality of the material files scanned by MobileFusion is higher than expected, enough for 3D printing, augmented reality games and other usage scenarios.

"With this software, it's pretty fun to scan the Eiffel Tower when you go out and share the 3D digital model with friends and family," Izadi said.

What he said is not without reason. 3D scanning is not limited to research purposes. Many consumer-grade electronic products available on the market already contain some software and hardware for 3D scanning functions. The scanning capabilities, accuracy, and ease of use of hardware and software have been compared. Good level. For example, Intel is working with a number of vendors to install a module called RealSense on a computer, tablet or even a mobile phone: it consists of at least two cameras that can capture 3D visual content for live face recognition, Construction industry measurement and other scenarios.

Although in terms of hardware cost, RealSense is much better than the 3D scanning hardware of previous years, the researchers are still not satisfied. "In our opinion, the universality and usability of 3D scanning is the most important," Izadi said.

Only the black technology that can improve everyone's life is the most handsome technology.

Solar Panel

solar panel

A solar cell panel, solar electric panel, photo-voltaic (PV) module, PV panel or solar panel is an assembly of photovoltaic solar cells mounted in a (usually rectangular) frame, and a neatly organised collection of PV panels is called a photovoltaic system or solar array. Solar panels capture sunlight as a source of radiant energy, which is converted into electric energy in the form of direct current (DC) electricity. Arrays of a photovoltaic system can be used to generate solar electricity that supplies electrical equipment directly, or feeds power back into an alternate current (AC) grid via an inverter system.
