Some tuts I found via google: http://gmv.cast.uark.edu/scanning/point-clouds-to-mesh-in-meshlab/ https://vimeo.com/20933872 On Thu, Oct 3, 2013 at 3:30 PM, Steven Caron <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> wrote: various options, agisoft comes to mind but i don't know if you can import point clouds for meshing? maybe eric mootz has some sort of workflow with his plugins? maybe openvdb. they have meshing algorithms for point clouds... i have a really basic softimage plugin that could be extended, but i don't have the time (i mean no one is paying me to do it) to add that functionality.

Note this is not for a simulation its rather for a visualization project. (so only 1 frame) Has anyone has success in doing something like this. ICE is not my area and the results I an getting from typical mesh cloud type apps are not great. Kind regards Angus This communication is intended for the addressee only. It is confidential.
