MVStudio is a lightweight, easy to use, and integrated SfM (Structure from Motion) and MVS (Multi-View Stereo) solution. It is intended for learning/researching 3D computer vision. The SfM implementation was taken from Noah's earlier version of bundler and the MVS implementation was from Yasu's CMVS.
Prebuilt executables (for macOS, Linux, and Windows) can be downloaded here.
MVStudio depends on some third-party libraries and all dependencies (except for Qt) are included in the distribution. To build MVStudio, you need Qt, CMake, and of course, a compiler:
- Qt
>= 5.0 - CMake
>= 3.1 - a compiler that supports
>= C++11
MVStudio has been tested on macOS (Xcode >= 8), Windows (MSVC >=2015), and Linux (GCC >= 4.8, Clang >= 3.3). Machines nowadays typically provide higher supports, so you should be able to build MVStudio on almost all platforms.
There are many options to build MVStudio. Choose one of the following (or whatever you are familiar with):
-
Option 1: Use any IDE that can directly handle CMakeLists files to open the
CMakeLists.txtin the root directory of MVStudio. Then you should have obtained a usable project and just build. I recommend using CLion or QtCreator. For Windows users: your IDE must be set forx64. -
Option 2: Use CMake to generate project files for your IDE. Then load the project to your IDE and build. For Windows users: your IDE must be set for
x64. -
Option 3 (purely on command line): Use CMake to generate Makefiles and then
make(on Linux/macOS) ornmake(on Windows with Microsoft Visual Studio).- on Linux or macOS, you can simply
$ cd path-to-root-dir-of-MVStudio $ mkdir Release $ cd Release $ cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release .. $ make - On Windows with Microsoft Visual Studio, use
x64 Native Tools Command Prompt for VS XXXX(don't use the x86 one), then$ cd path-to-root-dir-of-MVStudio $ mkdir Release $ cd Release $ cmake -G "NMake Makefiles" -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release .. $ nmake
- on Linux or macOS, you can simply

-
Create a project
- Goto menu File -> New Project, choose a folder, fill in the project name, and Save the project file. The folder you choose will contain all (intermediate) results after reconstruction.
- Goto menu File -> Add Images, choose the folder containing the images. This can also be done by right-clicking the image panel (upper right corner of the program).
-
Reconstruction
- Menu Runconstruct -> Image Matching
- Menu Runconstruct -> Run Sparse (SfM) and wait to see the sparse point cloud.
- Menu Runconstruct -> Run Dense (MVS) and wait to see the dense point cloud.
