KIRI Engine announces the launch of its Featureless Object Mode, powered by Neural Surface Reconstruction technology.

"While traditional photogrammetry excels at producing high-quality textures and colors, it may not always be the ideal choice when encountering objects with fewer feature points. Objects with shiny/reflective surfaces pose a great challenge for traditional photogrammetry as the algorithm struggles to determine specific feature points for compiling sufficient details to generate an adequate model. Thus, to counter this existing issue, our team has developed the Featureless Object Mode utilizing NSR technology.", says the KIRI Engine team.
Having integrated NSR technology into the KIRI Engine APP, users now have the flexibility to select the most suitable method for their specific scanning needs.
The developers mention that the traditional approach of capturing and uploading high-quality image batches is highly effective for objects with numerous feature points. However, the NSR-based featureless object mode enables users to scan objects with fewer feature points.
When using this technology, users will record a video at a steady pace while circling the object, capturing three key layers: top, middle, and bottom.
