Photo Limit for EDU users

Photo Limit for EDU users

Hey,

 

I'm currently and edu user who has recently switched over to Recap from Remake. As of now Recap has a 100 photo limit for edu users and as I recall Remake used to have a 250 limit on the photos. By any chance will you be increasing the limit anytime soon? 

 

Thank you!

Thanks for submitting the idea. The photo limit for Recap Photo now is already increased to 1000 photos in latest update.

 I am also still limited to only 100 pictures on the newest update available on the Autodesk website.

Unfortunately the Photo limit for EDU license is 100 photos only since we do not charge any cloud credits for reconstruction. For using photo limit of upto 1000 photos you can download the latest version of Recap Photo and use a subscription plan. 

 

Thanks,

Recap Photo Team.

then this idea is not implemented at all! @Anonymous was asking for more than 100 photos for EDU users like the 250 limit we had on remake

@vikas.vaishnav Thanks to you for listening to us! 🙂 I hope this is implemented maybe not 1000 photos but the 250 ones we had on Remake is great, most of us learned how to work with that amount ofphotos and in my experience it is a good number to get good results

It would be great if you increase to 250 photos. I give my vote for it. 

 

Another good idea is to bring back Offline reconstruction. It saves a lot of time to clean your cloud or even uploading photos. This option was what made Remake so good. 

Thank you.




Another question: 

 

If my school has licence, I suppose they are better than EDU licence. Would that mean that I can use up to 1k photos? 

I am not sure what kind of licence you are supping schools with? 

 

 

Best,
Georgi

250 was sufficient in Remake, 100 is not sufficient to get same quality results; please go 250 again!

100 limit isn't enough and with you subscription plane its becomes cheaper to use Meshlab by Agisoft with an EDU lic. We can even build our own render farm or use AWS and still save the students money. or PFTrack, or even Meshlab for free even though its slow and not quit as good.   Wouldn't it make sense to have a free edu at 100 or 250 pics and then a Pay EDU that less then $40 a month for more.  You understand that its super easy to just break up the photocaptures and then stitch them later and submit 10 groups of 100 right?  All this 100 limit does it make people run several batches of 100 and saves autodesk nothing in space or time.  It also makes people consider other option of which there are several.

Seria bueno aplicar mas de 100 fotos por lo que para generar una ortofoto, es algo absurdo que nomas tengamos pocas fotos ya que cuando se va a generar en campo con un drone para la toma de foto,siempre se va a tomar mas de 100 fotos... seria imposible que una ortofoto se viera bien con un minimo de fotos, a lo mejor fuera para un proyecto pequeño pero muy pequeño se podria aplicar ese limite. Supongamos ahora yo tengo un proyecto que tengo es aerovia en cual se esta revisando un talud pero para poder generarlo el modelo en 3d se necesita unas buenas fotos y ademas no seria nada util, ya que yo tengo otros programas como pix4d que en realidad se bien, y no tiene un limite de fotos, yo pongo mucha fe en ustedes en autodesk... yo uso infraworks, civil 3d y bueno obviamente tambien autocad, por eso me ha gustado trabjar con sus programa, y como todos saben el limite de 100 fotos se por lo que es educ, pero aun con mas razon se deberia usar mas fotos, para que el estudiante o quien sea que utilice el programa tenga el agrado de utilizar recap. 

Gracias

I support the proposal to raise the limit to 250 photos for EDU users. It would help me a lot. Thank you.

A Tus comentarios anteriores decías que es algo tonto que sea educativo el programa pero que solo coja 100 fotos, la verdad me parece algo absurdo, pero bueno cosas de autodesk. Al respecto sobre usar otros programa. A mi parecer agisoft es un programa útil, la verdad lo he utilizado esta semana y me sorprendió algunas cosas como generar pdf el modelo y que se lo pueda ver el modelo 3d en pdf y no solamente como imagen  pero de ahí no ayuda mucho más solo para mostrar el modelo, y obviamente tiene para incluir más fotos, mi jefe le gusto más que usará programa de autodesk, aunque nomás solo tenga para poca fotos, sería bueno.. mejor dicho sería justo y necesario que tengamos más utilidad en recap y a la vez que autodesk vea estos comentarios y nos tome en cuenta, sería de muy buena ayuda.... saludos Josue

I'm a teacher at a high school and was considering adding this to my curriculum but with a 100 image limit, I think I'll need to find a different software to use.

We plan to use this software in our UAS stem learning programs.  The 100 image limit severely hinders our gathering sufficient images for good quality productions.   limit of 250 to 300 is usable.  As an example, in order to capture faces and features accurately in a photomap UAS exercise, this limit reduces the flight area exponentially.  The maximum area covered is reduced to less than a  quarter acre and just isn't sufficient for curriculum projects. It therefore makes Recap Photo a nonstarter in our opinion.  Please update and provide a reasonable photo limit so that we can proceed – especially given we are, in the process, building future users of your software.

 

There are many other options out there for UAS 3D Map generation.  The reason we chose Autodesk in the first place is that we also use other Autodesk SW such as Fusion 360 which is outstanding.
