MESHROOM
3D reconstruction software
Photogrammetry is the science of making measurements from photographs. It infers the geometry of a scene from a set of unordered photographies or videos. Photography is the projection of a 3D scene onto a 2D plane, losing depth information. The goal of photogrammetry is to reverse this process. The dense modeling of the scene is the result yielded by chaining two computer vision-based pipelines, “Structure-from-Motion” (SfM) and “Multi View Stereo” (MVS). Fusion of Multi-bracketing LDR images into HDR. Alignment of panorama images. Support for fisheye optics. Automatically estimate fisheye circle or manually edit it. Take advantage of motorized-head file. Easy to integrate in your Renderfarm System. Add specific rules to select the most suitable machines regarding CPU, RAM, GPU requirements of each Node. -

qiji-font
Typeface from Ming Dynasty woodblock printed books
Typeface from Ming Dynasty woodblock printed books. A Ming typeface. Extracted from Ming Dynasty woodblock printed books (凌閔刻本). Using semi-automatic computer vision and OCR. Open-source. A work in progress. Named in honor of 閔齊伋, a 16th-century printer. Intended to be used with Kenyan-lang, the Classical Chinese programming language. Download high-resolution PDFs and split pages into images. Manually lay a grid on top of each page to generate bounding boxes for characters (potentially replaceable by an automatic corner-detection algorithm). Generate a low-poly mask for each character on the grid, and save the thumbnails (using OpenCV). First, red channel is subtracted from the grayscale, in order to clean the annotations printed in red ink. Next, the image is thresholded and fed into the contour-tracing algorithm. A metric is then used to discard shapes that are unlikely to be part of the character in interest. -

GoCV
Go package for computer vision using OpenCV 4 and beyond
GoCV gives programmers who use the Go programming language access to the OpenCV 4 computer vision library. The GoCV package supports the latest releases of Go and OpenCV v4.5.4 on Linux, macOS, and Windows. Our mission is to make the Go language a “first-class” client compatible with the latest developments in the OpenCV ecosystem. Computer Vision (CV) is the ability of computers to process visual information, and perform tasks normally associated with those performed by humans. CV software typically processes video images, then uses the data to extract information in order to do something useful. Since memory allocations for images in GoCV are done through C based code, the go garbage collector will not clean all resources associated with a Mat. As a result, any Mat created must be closed to avoid memory leaks. -

DensePose
A real-time approach for mapping all human pixels of 2D RGB images
DensePose is a computer vision system that maps all human pixels in an RGB image to the 3D surface of a human body model. It extends human pose estimation from predicting joint keypoints to providing dense correspondences between 2D images and a canonical 3D mesh (such as the SMPL model). This enables detailed understanding of human shape, motion, and surface appearance directly from images or videos. The repository includes the DensePose network architecture, training code, pretrained models, and dataset tools for annotation and visualization. DensePose is widely used in augmented reality, motion capture, virtual try-on, and visual effects applications because it enables real-time 3D human mapping from 2D inputs. The model architecture builds on Mask R-CNN, using additional regression heads to predict UV coordinates that map image pixels to 3D surfaces. -

Segment Anything
Provides code for running inference with the SegmentAnything Model
Segment Anything (SAM) is a foundation model for image segmentation that’s designed to work “out of the box” on a wide variety of images without task-specific fine-tuning. It’s a promptable segmenter: you guide it with points, boxes, or rough masks, and it predicts high-quality object masks consistent with the prompt. The architecture separates a powerful image encoder from a lightweight mask decoder, so the heavy vision work can be computed once and the interactive part stays fast. A bundled automatic mask generator can sweep an image and propose many object masks, which is useful for dataset bootstrapping or bulk annotation. The repository includes ready-to-use weights, Python APIs, and example notebooks demonstrating both interactive and automatic modes. Because SAM was trained with an extremely large and diverse mask dataset, it tends to generalize well to new domains, making it a practical starting point for research and production annotation tools. -
