There is also a new wizard for merging workspaces and several “quality of life” improvements, described in more detail in this blog post. Workflow and interface improvements include a new utility bar, shown at bottom of the viewport in the image above, providing access to key tools and measurement information. Interface updates, ‘quality of life’ tools and spline drawing features In addition, WIC ( Windows Imaging Component) is now the software’s default imaging engine: 3Dflow describes it as “much faster” for loading TIFF files and RAW images than the existing engine. Sasha, the software’s meshing framework, now supports out-of-core processing, meaning that it is no longer limited by GPU memory: something 3Dflow describes as “probably be biggest bottleneck” in version 4.5.Īccording to the firm, the change improves both speed of processing and memory usage while a new photoconsistency filter reconstructs “much more beautiful and realistic sharp edges” in the mesh. Samantha, the software’s Structure from Motion (SfM) component, is now “significantly faster” with large data sets: those comprising 1,000 images or more.ģDflow’s own benchmark tests show Samantha processing a data set comprising over 3,000 images around 2x faster in version 5.0 than in version 4.5, the previous release. Major improvements to performance and mesh qualityģDflow describes version 5.0 as “the biggest technology update that 3DF Zephyr has ever received in a single release”, improving both the performance of the software and the quality of the results it generates. The two high-end editions of the software, 3DF Zephyr Pro and 3DF Zephyr Aerial, have been replaced by a single edition, simply called 3DF Zephyr, available as a monthly subscription as well as a perpetual licence.ģDflow has also released 3DF Scarlet, a new standalone edition for registering laser scan data, bundled free with the full edition of 3DF Zephyr. 3Dflow has released 3DF Zephyr 5.0, the next major version of its image-based modelling software, significantly improving performance and adding support for out-of-core meshing.
