This movie takes the audience on a journey to a world where every object, artwork, and architecture is built from reality with 3-D Photography. Walk through monuments, manipulate objects and statues, and fly inside renaissance paintings. The monuments were reconstructed from digital images and image-based modeling based on Photogrammetry, bundle adjustment, and texture mapping using in-house software tools and a commercial package (ShapeCapture). The statues and small objects were digitized by a laser scanner with 10-microns resolution and modeled by PolyWorks software. The paintings were turned into 3D using our new single image 3D technique (SIGGRAPH'01 sketch).
