Overview of Status of Analysis, Design, Fabrication, Tests, etc.
Converted High Quality Trimble TXF Scans to .xyz intertial data files (no surface/mesh reconstruction on these files)
Incredibly Dense files ~95 GBs still need to mesh individual files together
Accomplishments from Previous Week
Constructed full scale models
Scanned full scale models with Trimble TX5
Scanned varies textures and organic materials (Fruits, Vegetables, Plants)
Setting up weekly meetings with Nathan Wade (KUKA/Vis Arts Lab Technician)
Goals for Next Week (list names after each item). Use specific and measurable objectives.
White Light Risk Reduction- Krishna, Alan
SFM Risk reduction- All
Mesh xyz files- James
KUKA live sample-All
Sponsor Comments from Last Meeting and Actions Taken to Address these Comments (indicate date of comments and if via email or in person)
Desire to look into SFM (Structure From Motion) from CISA 3 labs at CalIT 2. Set up appointment with CISA 3 to go over the technique and challenges associated with it.
Instructor Comments from Last Meeting and Actions Taken to Address these Comments (indicate date of comments and if via email or in person)
Contact Davis sponsor as potential resource- Completed, contacts have been found and will be used if absolutely neccesary
Comments from Other Students in the Class (indicate date of comments and if via email or in person)
N/A
Risks and Areas of Concern
File meshing- computational resources
Potential solutions- Reach out to super computing center since meshlab has a linux package.
Potential Solutions- Work in auto desk, the files can be imported to .pcg files. Can these be manipulated in Maya?
