3DF Zephyr Lite Steam Edition

## About This Software
3DF Zephyr allows you to automatically and easily create 3D models from
photos.

The process is completely automatic and no coded targets, manual editing or
special equipments are needed: with a user friendly interface and the
possibility to export in many common 3D formats, 3DF Zephyr is the perfect
tool for 3D modelling from reality.

Steam Edition includes all 4.x updates.

Please note that 3DF Zephyr runs only on Microsoft Windows x64 operating
systems (Vista and later)

FAQs:

\-------------------------------------------------------------

Q: How long does it take to create a 3D reconstruction ?

A: this depends on the number of pictures, the resolution of the pictures, the
settings used in Zephyr as well as the hardware of your computer! It can take
from a few minutes up to even several hours! An example? The dismal statuette
used in the video takes about 1 hour on an i7, 8GB ram notebook with a Quadro
card. We have a trial version you can use so you can make your own tests
before buying, but feel free to contact us if you want some clarifications!

\-------------------------------------------------------------

Q: Which file formats can Zephyr export to?

A: Zephyr Lite can export to PLY , OBJ/MTL, FBX* and STL.

*Pro and Aerial can also save the Camera orientation in the FBX, although the Lite version can not.

\-------------------------------------------------------------

Q: Does Zephyr support 3D printing out of the box?

A: The output, while ready for 3D printing, might need some adjustments in
your 3D printer's software.

\-------------------------------------------------------------

Q: Are there limits in 3DF Zephyr Lite, compared to the Pro edition?

A: Yes, most notably you'll be limited to 500 pictures per single project
(which are a lot!) and up to 2 nVidia cards for GPU processing. For a more in
depth feature comparison, feel free to check our website. However, remember
that the core technology is the very same.

\-------------------------------------------------------------

Q: How should i take pictures ?

A: The better the picture quality, the better the results. Obviously a DSLR
camera works better than a phone camera, but you can get results even with
reasonably cheap hardware. Please note that reflective and transparent
surfaces might be a problem, which sometime can be solved in the way the
pictures are shot, and sometimes they can't. In our free tutorials, we tackle
this issues and we are always ready to take a look at your dataset if you have
doubts. A certain overlap between images is required.
