Why are some points misaligned or fail to auto-align in a project with the G1?
Here are common reasons why Auto-Alignment might fail, along with suggested solutions:
- Points are placed too far apart:
If the distance between two adjacent points is too far apart, there may be insufficient overlap between their views, causing the alignment to fail.
Recommended solution: Ensure that adjacent scan points have adequate shared visual areas to support automatic alignment. You can also refer to the article : How to place capture points? - Obstructed or disconnected views between points:
Even when scan points are within a reasonable distance, alignment may still fail if there are obstacles—such as walls or partitions—between them, resulting in no shared visual areas.
Recommended solution: Adjust the position of the scan points to ensure a clear line of sight and adequate visual overlap between adjacent points for reliable auto-alignment. - The scenes of adjacent points are too similar:
If the captured scenes between two points have high similarity but lack distinct features, the algorithm may struggle to find accurate matching points.
Recommended solution: Optimize by using manual alignment feature. - The scene exceeds the limitations that REALSEE G1 can capture:
1) It is not recommended to capture too large space, such as factories, open environments, etc.
2) It is not supported to capture the outdoors.
3) It is not recommended to capture in a dim environment. (which affects the presentation of the capture effect)
Recommended solution: If you has the need to capture too large space or outdoor and other scenes, it is recommended that you can upgrade the professional equipment such as Galois for capture.
