Visual SFM - Introductory Video

Here is an introductory video to VisualSFM. This is a great application to create dense point cloud reconstructions from a set of photographs.

This open source tool was developed by Changchang Wu from the University of Washington in Seattle.

There are portions of VisualSFM that are open source as provided by Changchang Wu. So, this is partially true.

Good point on PMVS. When you are using VisualSFM and launch CMVS/PMVS, the log window does show that it is from Yasutaka Furukawa. Thanks for comments.

Hey, thanks for the vid. I received my nvidia card two days ago. Tryed yesterady and was unable to get a decent sparse recon, the dense recon also failed due to a problem with a dll lib. I'll try again today. Good to know we've a tut.

Nice video to show main features of VSFM! But VSFM isn't open source. It is free to use for non comercial purpose. You should also say that CMVS/PMVS is a software developed by Furukawa. LM
