Traffic Cone 3D Model from Photogrammetry

A traffic cone from 26 photos: Zephyr produced a 586,920 face scan, baked onto a simple Blender mesh in clean and dirty versions. Cycles render, on CGTrader.

I walked past this cone the other day. I had some time to kill, so I modeled it. I created one with the dirt and then cleaned it up.

This photo is a render with Blender Cycles.

I started by taking 26 photos. Using photogrammetry, I used Zephyr to create a 3D model. The photogrammetry model is huge. 586,920 faces to be exact.

The model was exported from Zephyr as an OBJ file and imported into Blender 2.81a. I created a simple geometry for the cone and then “baked” the texture to the simple model.

The model is available at CGTrader.com
