Here is a great complement to my last post. I'm pleased to present another amazing creation by the master of photogrammetry Marián Marčiš. This 3D model is of the archaeological site of Ollantaytambo in Peru, and features the South wall, that visitors rarely get to see. Enjoy, and make... show more

You can view some of the drone footage used to create this photogrammetric model here:

And here is a 3D model of the greater Sacsayhuaman area he created previously:

@Provehimur This is amazing!I visited just before Covid. I was so struck by the size of it. The steps being too big a span for our stride, the engineering/size of the rocks and how high up they had to be transported all belies a taller people than the Incas building this.

Love it

A great work! This is awesome!

ohhhh my goodness this is amazing

wow yeah this overview looks like an eco friendly mine, they added terraces to feed the work forces as they built those crazy walls to shore up the cliffs they were mining. Really amazing work you are doing. Thank you.

There is flying a drone and then there is mastering a drone. This is an example of mastering the drone.

I like Ollantaytambo more than Machu Picchu. Probably because I e spent more time there. Amazing

this is my favorite site. thanks!

Absolutely perfect! I also recommend seeing Kailasa Temple (India) if you haven't seen it.

Weird Old World1 year ago

Yes! Definitely on my list when I go to India!

A. B. Thompson1 year ago

Extremely well done. My hat is off to you both. Very impressive.

Weird Old World1 year ago

Thank you very much.

A. B. Thompson1 year ago

Absolutely. Looking forward to whatever comes next.

Mats Nilsson1 year ago

Marvelous.

RooBait1 year ago

Extraordinary stuff. How accurate is it as far as using this footage as historical evidence?

Weird Old World1 year ago

What do you mean? As evidence of what?

RooBait1 year ago

Were I to use this footage as evidence of some theory, would it be regarded as accurate enough to use as evidence?

Weird Old World1 year ago

I guess it depends what your theory is. You could also use the original drone footage from which the model was created.

RooBait1 year ago

I, personally, don't have any theories. I lean in certain directions, following the work of others. It just struck me that the modelling used could be put to good use as a demonstration of some concept or idea.

Impressive work! What kind of computing power do you need to pull this off?

I’m thrilled to present something Marián Marčiš and I have been working on for the past few weeks. To my knowledge, this is something that has never been done before, and this is our first model that includes underground parts. Behold a photogrammetric 3D model of Zona X! Zona X (also known as Lanlakuyoc or Lancacuyo) is a mysterious site about a mile North-East of Sacsayhuaman. It’s a big limestone outcrop intersected by a network of tunnels and narrow passageways, some open to the sky, and others going deep underground. It also features several right-angled cuts in the bedrock ("hanan pacha" style) whose function remains unknown to this day, as well as a section of a megalithic wall. It is also said that this site once had a chincana entrance, possibly connecting to Sacsayhuaman, that has now been sealed off. I have an idea of which passage could lead to an entrance, but it remains to be confirmed. It's a true stone labyrinth in which it's easy to get lost, which is why I wanted to create a 3D map of it. I wanted to get a better idea of how these passages are oriented in relation to each other and where they could lead. It took several visits to the site to map all the passages I could crawl through. Some of these passageways become too narrow to squeeze through for an adult of average build, but seem to extend much deeper. It took Marián a LOT of work (and a lot of processing power) to combine and align the thousands of photos from a drone and extracted from a 360° ground video needed to create the 55 millions triangles that make up this model. I’m not sure how he did it but he pulled it off. He really deserves his title of photogrammetry wizard. Please make sure to give him the follow he deserves Marián Marčiš. The video doesn't show all the passages I filmed for the creation of the model. We decided to only show the main ones, and some of the most prominent stone carvings in order to keep the video relatively short. The site has many more nooks and crannies not shown in the video that are just begging to be explored. I hope we can complete this model in the future. Until then, enjoy this one!

This hidden corner at Ollantaytambo, Peru, is never visited by tourists, it's tucked out of the way. But if you take the time to come here, you will find a mind blowing piece of ancient stonework. How this was done, and why, is beyond me.

Secretary Rubio in Peru: I'm very pleased to hear the announcement that Peru will be joining the Shield of the Americas. What is it a shield against? It's a shield against threats to the sovereignty of these independent nations.

You'd think that all the geoglyphs of the Nazca region have been documented by now, but that's not the case. There are dozens of geometric geoglyphs that don't resemble the anthropomorphic or zoomorphic figurative designs of the most famous figures, nor the trapezoidal shapes that are found throughout the region's desert. Here is an example of these geometric motifs, whose lines are often too fine to be seen from an airplane or on satellite images. This photogrammetric model and the overlay of lines was created by the talented Marián Marčiš from drone videos. I'll be going back to Nazca next month to film as many new ones as I can. Who do you think made them and why?

🚨This HUGE Ancient "Staircase" in Peru Was Blown Clean Off! The Chinkana Grande (Great Labyrinth) is one of the most mysterious sites in Peru, covered in precision cuts, niches and channels, local oral tradition says it guards the entrance to a vast underground labyrinth!

HOLY SHIT! Sparc 3D is INSANE! All they need to do now is enable PBR texture support, object separation and decimation and this in my opinion completely replaces photogrammetry. The quality of the reconstruction of these 3D objects from a single image is mind blowing to me. Yes, the model is insanely dense to allow all of this detail but the fact that AI can generate with this level of fidelity is CRAZY!!! You can try it for free on Huggingface

I'm so proud of the range of body types that our 3D customizable model will soon be able to have in the first update!! ✨ It's hard to believe that this is just a single model. -^u^- What feature would you like to see next?🩷

If you profess to be a Christian, but your hermeneutical approach or eschatological stance prevents you from presenting the Gospel to a Jew with the sort of clarity, respect, and kindness that John MacArthur displays in this conversation with Ben Shapiro, you need to rethink everything. "I want to say this to you personally. You are a testimony to the glory of God in man. I see the beauty of God's creation in you. I see the use of reason and compassion and care...but I'm saying, you either believe Jesus is the Savior or you don't, and that's the distinction."

Adobe.. has released a tool that combines Generative Gaussian Splats with a Diffusion layer and it's not all over the internet? WHAT IS GOING ON :D I had to test this out ofc! Substance 3D viewer, the new 3d viewer just released by Adobe, not only supports viewing of a large, large list of 3d formats, but it also supports generating of 3d models as Gaussian Splats. Combine that with the built-in 3d to image functionality and you basically have at least a few of the steps I've been doing for the last year or so using multiple tools. Exciting stuff! The new Photoshop Beta also supports the 3D viewer and you can import 3d files directly in photoshop as smart objects linked to the viewer. The elements you prompt in based on your models, can be easily exported to your clipboard without backgrounds making it very easy to use this in your normal image editing workflows. I have a suspicion that we'll see much more of this in other Adobe tools and I'm very curious to see this used for things like this in more 3d tools than "just" Adobe Neo (which is fantastic btw). #adobe #art #gaussiansplatting

Time to update you on $OSAK which is my biggest #memecoin bag of the cycle. A strong dip followed by aggressive buying yesterday and starting off well again today. There are many reason to be bullish Osaka Protocol and now with the election out of the way, we may just see something special. I give you my reasons in this video. If you want to see more of this type of content give me a follow. #ifeelbetter Thanks to (Coach K) for the heads up!
