Project Owl: Video is up!

I have spent some time recently to revisit my old works and made a video out of it for the documentation.

This video shows how the Grasshopper component I developed in 2015 called Project Owl works. It generates 3D point cloud in Rhinoceros using Microsoft Kinect V2. The purpose of this development was to create a minimalistic component that only creates point cloud, and no more than that. Hope you have fun watching the video.

Project Owl with Volvox

So I’ve tried Owl with Volvox, which has been developed as a part of DURAARK project at the Center for Information Technology and Architecture (CITA) by Henrik Leander Evers and Mateusz Zwierzycki (http://www.grasshopper3d.com/group/volvox), and found out it’s much convenient to navigate scanned point clouds in the Rhino with these two combination.

Basically Volvox can turn array of points into Rhino point cloud type, which is lighter compare to have a sets of points. Have a try!

Update: source code of Project Owl is now publically open. Follow the link below for the code as well as the binary GHA file!
