Enjoy expanded photogrammetry capabilities of ReCap Photo, our new desktop and cloud solution built for UAV and drone processes. Read.We see how and the same can be said of drones. Previously, aerial surveying methods meant spending tens of thousands of dollars to charter a one-time scan from a professional service company using LiDAR-equipped plane. Now, it is possible to do the same work with a drone or UAV, which has dramatically reduced the cost and increased the accessibility of site reality capture. Additionally, drones have made it easier to safely capture hard-to-access or inaccessible areas where traditional surveying could be dangerous or impractical.These improvements are not just limited to hardware, as enhancements in software are also changing the way we work. Through automation and the computing power of the cloud, software is speeding up and automating the once tedious process of registering (stitching) and editing captured information.That’s where ReCap Pro comes in. ReCap Pro has made it easier for our customers to deliver their projects with more accuracy and efficiency, by facilitating the creation of highly accurate virtual models that can be imported and used in Autodesk design products such as AutoCAD, Revit, Infraworks, Civil 3D, Navisworks, and more.See Pro.Now, we’re happy to unveil ReCap Photo, our new cloud-based solution tailored for UAV photo capturing processes.

ReCap Photo is a desktop app which utilizes Autodesk’s upgraded Photo-to-3D cloud service, The addition of ReCap Photo expands the value of a ReCap Pro subscription with features to support UAV and drone photo capture workflows. 0Hi,I’m interested in getting a point cloud of an existing building/site, and considered using ReCap to achieve this. Can someone suggest what would be more worthwhile: a) hiring a professional who can do all the work for me including flying the drone and doing the imaging, or b) purchasing a drone and camera, and learning how to use ReCap to create my model? I don’t necessarily plan to be doing much drone flying, although I do think it’s pretty awesome, but I will really need that point cloud for a project. Does anyone know the approximate cost of each? Any input is appreciated.Thanks,Andres. Mitko Vidanovski over 2 years ago.

0Hi, I’m trying to test my drone data compared to my laser scan data of some stock piles. I have uploaded 460 photos through ReCap Pro and let the software stitch it together, which it did.

Now I want to add GCP from Total Station and Laser Scan Points. How do I go back into my project and add GCP and reprocess, letting it adjust accordingly? I see post about an Autodesk Fly service but am unable to find it on the Autodesk site? You should be able to pull photos in and out or add to your project without creating a new project everytime or simply compare your results with and without ground control. Any help is appreciated. karthik.nathan@autodesk.com over 2 years ago. 0Hello Brent,To get ReCap Photo desktop application installed, you need to install the latest ReCap installer:Base install: AutodeskReCap4202MultilingualR3Win64bitdlm.sfx.exeThe ‘R3’ version is ReCap version 4.2.0.2 + ReCap Photo.If you have already installed ReCap from the following:AutodeskReCap4202MultilingualR2Win64bitdlm.sfx.exeand its subsequent update, version 4.2.1.7, it is ok.Simply download AutodeskReCap4202MultilingualR3Win64bitdlm.sfx.exe and launch the installer.

You can then select only ReCap Photo to be installed on the machine.Regards,Devang.

Unfortunately, the fact that ReCap Pro processing must be performed in “the cloud”, and my study is mostly in remote locations without an internet connection, the software is useless for my application. I will be uninstalling my fresh install of ReCap and finding alternatives offered by other vendors because without the ability to process on a local machine, my research in the efficacy of incorporating 3D documentation in archaeological settings can no longer proceed.

Annie Phan (Post author) over 2 years ago. 0I could not agree more. Sorry but for those of us that work with hardware and software Annie cloud computing is not a solution for remote locations where cell phone service is non exisiting.

To visit these locations than to leave to head hours away to possibly get a signal, wifi, or some sort of internet access and then to wait in que than finally the model finishes to see the object not coming out successfully is deter-mental to those of us that work out in the field. Please bring back local processing. Those of us who spent the money to meet recommended hardware specifications of Autodesk Remake to speed up the workflow and to work out in the field. Than the cost of cloud credits is absurd please I will pay a yearly fee for local processing. BJHollister over 2 years ago.

Is this possible still?How do you relate the coordinate system to photos?This is also a questions for drone images that might not be GEO located by the drone.Do you need targets or can you select points common between the pictures themselves?Does the UAV need to have Geolocation navagation or can a basic one with a camera mount work.I have a drone that will take photos or video from the remote, its not self navigating or first person though.

Mitko Vidanovski over 2 years ago. 0HelloI have a problem with generating a photo on a 3d object using ReCap Photo. A few days ago I generated the first 3D object from a set of 200 photos – everything was OK. I have now set up a set of 700 photos, but ReCap Photo does not run the process (inform me of the limit of 300 pictures). I have subscribed to ReCap Pro and 95 credits in the cloud. I think I did everything to start the process. I have recently installed the latest ReCap and ReCap Photo programs.What else can I do?RegardsPawel. Ism v6 intelligent script manager free download.

Mitko Vidanovski over 2 years ago. 0I too would like to know if Recap Photo is going to receive educational benefits. Last week I stood in front of a group of students espousing the benefits of Remake for photogrammetry only to open the program and have it say that it has been moved to Recap photo and upon installing Recap photo find that apparently the educational benefits have been stripped from this product. Please tell us what your intentions are with this product so that I know whether to pursue another photogrammetry platform for next week’s class. Annie Phan (Post author) over 2 years ago.

0Hi Arin, Remake is still available to current EDU account holders for the time being. We will offer an EDU version of ReCap Photo/Recap Pro in late October or early November. At that point, the photo processing will be limited to 100 photos.Unfortunately, EDU licenses are not set up to allow the purchasing additional cloud credits.

In order to fully access the photo processing capabilities of ReCap Photo (processing up to 300 object photos or 1,000 UAV/drone photos), you would need to sign up for the 30-day free trial of ReCap Pro or a paid month or annual subscription. We are sorry if these options do not serve your needs. benbritton over 2 years ago. 0hi,seems like when Recap got integrated into Recap, the following happened:to use it, a user must install Recap Pro, an educational license will receive a one-year subscription.so now Recap spawns as a standalone sub-application that must be started inside Recap Pro. It opens in its own window as a separate app (Recap Photos).please note: this sub-application (Recap Photo) does not give educational licenses a one-year license, just 30 day trial.so now we in academia, on zero budghets for our most advanced, who are interested in integration of the full Autodesk suite of tools, must hope that youFIX or RESTOREthe provision of the one-year educational license for Remake, as it is integrated in its current form.please re-read the above before you think you know what i mean.thanks,-benb. devangshah over 2 years ago.

0Hello,ReCap Photo application is available with ReCap subscription.If you have purchased a ReMake subscription, you may continue to use it till the end of the subscription after which you can purchase ‘Autodesk ReCap’ subscription and cloud credits required to process the images with ReCap Photo.If you are an EDU user, you may continue using ReMake EDU license till 30th November. ReCap Photo does not offer free processing for EDU users yet.We are contemplating introduction of a suitable solution for EDU users of ReCap Photo which will be made available soon.Regards,Devang.

ramd401 over 2 years ago. 0Hello Annie Phan and Mitko Vidanovski, very pleased.

I do a master’s degree in Mechanical Engineering at FEI, a renowned university in Brazil where the goal is to show the productivity of 3D scanning based on the concept of Recap photos, and the cloud system of the A360, so I have been experimenting to show the efficacy of the method, I started my work with Remake, where I have many quotes from it and also from autodesk. However, on Friday at the open I was directed to the Recap fotos, which requests credits in the cloud, factor that makes the experiments unfeasible, in total there are 9, remembering that I need numerous tests for this. How can you help me?If you need documents related to the course to college as well as recognition of my adviser can send you via email. Thanks in advance and congratulate the whole team.I am very worried because the work is already qualified leaving only the last section, the experiments.

MichaelGilham over 2 years ago. 0can answer my own question, Recap photo is Remake with a few extra features aimed at drone footage and the ability to work in surveyed coordinate systems, as well as some other stuff, so all good things.The Remake page says the product can be used through the end of my contract, which is fine, Recap Photo is about the same price.But the biggest problem I see is that Recap Photo explicitly states you can’t do local processing of photos, you have to use the cloud service with purchased credits. Why is this the case? There should definitely be the option for local processing, I don’t feel like paying for a service that the computer I have right in front of me will do for free. over 2 years ago.
