I work at OA Digital [1] - a colleague of mine is working on very similar work and we've had some fantastic results so far from our "51 headless 'vikings'" in Weymouth [2] [3]. We should have a pdf out with all the details very soon - all Open Source Software, of course, some of it even produced by original members of the team that went on to become the Microsoft / Washington research body.
I'm told that the software currently in use is David Lowe's SIFT for extracting features from input images; Bundler and PMVS for camera calibration and 3D reconstruction; MeshLab for surface reconstruction and texturing. If people are interested I'll email again when our documentation is ready.
