TaIhu stones are very popular in Suzhou’s gardens and they have an important meaning within Chinese culture.
Here is a test of fast low quality scanning of one of these stone in the old town of Tongli near Suzhou. We are interested in low quality scan as we usually work with crowdsourced pictures, so we try to do something “not bad” with terrible dataset. Therefore I didn’t make effort while scanning in order to reflect this “problematic”.
The scan was perfomed by filming the object around without focus. I extracted the frame and use photoscan. Honestly I expected a worst result!
Taihu stone are normally hard to scan due to their natural holes. The top of the model is missing as there is a hole and at the time of the capture it was dark inside. I have no clue why a part of the back is missing but it might be due to lose of focus.
Can certainly be improved.
