1. Data acquisition & pre-processing
-
Setup the apparatus (stick with two Ricoh cameras)
Cameras:
Camera 1: left, well-exposed, serial: YN14100695
Camera 3: right, fast-exposed (under-exposed), serial: YN14111000- To connect the other camera:
- Turn wifi off
- Close the app
- Turn wifi on
- Open the app
- Connect the other camera
- Camera setup:
- Install Ricoh Theta app
- Connect the camera to the app
- Change camera parameters: select manual (bottom right)
- First time: turn on "CT Settings" in Shooting settings
- Apreture: 2.1
- Shutter speed: determined below
- ISO: 800
- WB: 3500
- Make sure the cameras point up to avoid having lights in the seam.
- Make sure to film up and down to get good coverage
- To connect the other camera:
-
First capture with well-exposed cameras.
- Change shutter speed to get a well-exposed image. Note the shutter speed.
- Start the video on one camera. Connect to the other camera following the steps above and start the video on the second camera.
- Clap at the beginning and at the end to use for synchronization.
- Go around the scene with the two cameras well-exposed.
-
Second capture with Camera 1 (left) well-exposed and Camera 2 (right) fast-exposed. Change shutter speed of Camera 2 to 1/25000 (fastest exposure) and repeat the steps above
If calculating METRICS: Capture GT HDR brakets
- Go to settings and change the camera mode shooting method to multiple brackets
- Set the camera parameters:
- Apreture: 2.1
- Shutter speed: Calculate the 11 shutter speeds and select the closest ones on the app in order from smallest to hightes
python lantern_scripts/calculate_exposures.py --min 0.00004 --max 0.004 - ISO: 800
- WB: 3500
- Take 10 different locations
-
Import the files on computer. If on a mac, use Ricoh Theta File Transfer for Mac
-
Get the equirectangular videos by processing them with the Ricoh Theta computer app.
- Drag and drop the video file into the app window.
- Make sure both boxes are unchecked.
- Name files as fallows
- Camera 1:
- First capture: left_sfm
- Second capture: left_e1
- Camera 2 (fast exposed):
- First capture: right_sfm
- Second capture: right_e2
- Camera 1:
If calculating METRICS: Group GT brackets under GT folder like so GT/ GT1/ 001.jpg 002.jpg ... GT2/ ... ...
-
Transfer files on lab machine.
scp -r /path/to/source/file /path/to/destination/ -
Process the videos for OpenSFM. Input the right shutter speed noted above.
If not calculating metrics:
python lantern_scripts/process_videos_for_sfm.py --input_dir /mnt/data/scene/ --shutter_speed 0.004If calculating METRICS:
python lantern_scripts/process_videos_for_sfm.py --input_dir /mnt/data/scene/ --shutter_speed 0.004 --gt- Resize GT_exr and GT_jpg images to 3840x1920 with GNU Image Manipulation Program
- Go to Image > Scale Image
- Transfer those back on lab machine in th GT folder of the scene naming them GT_jpg_small and GT_exr_small
- Add GT_jpg images into sfm/images/ with their appropriate mask (checkout stick_masks folder)
- Resize GT_exr and GT_jpg images to 3840x1920 with GNU Image Manipulation Program
2. Process data using OpenSFM
bin/opensfm_run_all /mnt/data/scene/sfm/
To view results:
python3 viewer/server.py -d /mnt/data/scene/sfm/
Check that the camera positions make sense and that the number of clusters is low.
2. Process data for NeRF
ns-process-data lantern-openSFM --data /mnt/data/scene/data/ --output-dir /mnt/data/scene/scene_ns/ --metadata /mnt/data/scene/sfm/reconstruction.json
For processing existing dataset that used colmap for camera positions:
ns-process-data images --data /mnt/data/garden/images --output-dir /mnt/data/garden_processed --skip-colmap --skip-image-processing --colmap-model-path /mnt/data/garden/sparse/0
3. Train NeRF
-
Run step 1 of lantern-nerfacto.
ns-train lantern-nerfacto --data /mnt/data/scene/scene_ns/ --viewer.websocket-port 8008 --pipeline.datamanager.train-num-images-to-sample-from 1800 --pipeline.model.lantern_steps 1 --pipeline.datamanager.pixel-sampler.lantern_steps 1 --max-num-iterations 600001.1. For better alignment between the well and the fast exposed images, run the following command.
python lantern_scripts/align_fast_to_well.py --input_dir /mnt/data/scene/scene_ns/ --config outputs/scene_ns/lantern-nerfacto/2024-08-07_143013/config.yml -
Run step 2 of lantern-nerfacto.
ns-train lantern-nerfacto --data /mnt/data/scene/scene_ns/ --viewer.websocket-port 8008 --pipeline.datamanager.train-num-images-to-sample-from 1800 --pipeline.model.lantern_steps 2 --pipeline.datamanager.pixel-sampler.lantern_steps 2 --load-dir /mnt/workspace/lantern/nerfstudio-HDR/outputs/scene_ns/lantern-nerfacto/2024-06-10_155559/nerfstudio_models --pipeline.model.apply_mu_law False
