Infrared Images
Answered
I have images that came from an infrared camera. Their dimensions are 320x240. There is plenty of overlap etc that you would need for standard photogrammetry. The big issue I'm sure is the very low resolution. Will these work in Reality Capture? Is there a workflow? Or are there any examples of models being created from these types of images? I also have access to laser scan data of the same structure, if that would help. Thanks.

You can download PPI version and you will be able to process your images and see if it works for free, but without being able to export the results. If you will like the results and will want to be able to export them, you can always buy the PPI credits afterwards and do so.

Thanks Erik, I gave it a shot and with those low resolution images it did not work out. My camera takes both digital and infrared images. I'm confident that the digital images will match with the point cloud just fine for texturing/meshing etc. If I do that step successfully, is there a way to then force the corresponding infrared images to match with their respective digital images? I hope that makes sense.

Dear Gordon
I don't think there is a way to force it, but as long as those two types of images share nearly the same detail they should be able to connect to each other. If this theory is not applied then you can face a problem of not having shared features between the images because of the lack of detail. One way this could possibly work would be to get high-res images from a far and then low-res close-ups but that's still just a guess, you have to try and find what works for your workflow.
