Hello everyone, I am an absolute beginner to the realm of Computer Vision. I realize it is a rather complex subject. However I am not new programming. I discovered this page here: http://make3d.cs.cornell.edu/.
It seems they have had some success in completing this task. Does OpenCV offer this same functionality? Is there any information you can gather from an image to render a 3D model?
no opencv does not offer exactly that functionality.
what you found there is an attempt, to build a 3d model from a single image, while opencv only has methods to build a model from calibrated stereo-cams (disparity, block-matching) or multiple images (structure from motion)
Its partly in C++, partly in Matlab; and relatively less documented.
yea, good luck with that !
Hmm okay, so when you say you can build a model from multiple images are you referring to photogrammetry? Also what do you mean by "structure from motion"?

Hi @JohnnyWaffles welcome and thanks for the link. I see though that the authors provide the code. Therefore someone, it would be possible to try and port the code. The result seems quite interesting in any case.
