					With the proper backdrop, Foto 3D does an excellent job of identifying your background and masking out your object automatically.
			Strata Foto 3D is a powerful tool for creating professional quality 3D content from still images. A wide range of objects can be modeled including those with holes and 'difficult' organic shapes. Using a conventional camera, photos of your object on a printed mat are taken from a number of viewpoints in front of a plain backdrop. The shape of the object and its surface color are automatically extracted from each photo and this information is used to build a high quality 3D object. Foto 3D builds a virtual profile of your object using a series of photographs. It also uses these photographs to build a custom UV map of the texture of your object. While approximately 20 photos are required to build an object, the more photos you take, the better it looks. A sample workflow is shown at right. RELATED APPLICATIONS: Strata 3D CX
					Using the profile of your shape in each photo, Foto 3D automatically generates an accurate surface mesh. The more photos you have, the more accurate the mesh.
					Using the same images, Foto 3D generates a photorealistic UV map for your object.
					Or export the result as a .3ds file, and import it into Strata 3D CX for customized texturing
					After applying and editing the preset textures, send the model to Photoshop for additional work while still in the 3D domain (below).
