PLY 3D model data to Oculus pipeline?
Hi all,
Sorry if this is a total noob question, but anyone know the easiest way to get make a PLY file viewable with the ouclus? Is there existing software that will do this or does it require a pipeline to import it into Unity or something? I wanted to have a look at these models (http://dronemapper.com/sample_data) in the Oculus if that was easy to do.
My longer term goal is to create 3D timelapse of our research site using repeat flyovers with a UAV and then build an Oculus interface so people can see the site in 3D and zoom through time to watch the trees grow, etc. At the moment I'm just trying to figure out the general work flow and also to see what the models that come from the software will look like. We'll probably be hiring people to work on this at some point if anyone out there interested :)
Cheers
Tim
