SfM Flow is a comprehensive toolset for the evaluation of 3D reconstruction pipelines. It provides tools for the creation of datasets composed by synthetic images, the execution of 3D reconstruction Structure from Motion (SfM) pipelines, and the evaluation of the obtained results. SfM Flow integrates all these features in Blender.
- Blender 2.80.75 or later - tested on Ubuntu 18.04, Windows 10 and macOS Mojave
- ExifTool v10 or later
- A Structure from Motion 3D reconstruction pipeline, see pipeline support
