How many Images can I Upload?
To create Photogrammetry models in Polycam, you need to use a minimum of 20 photos to generate a basic 3D model. However, for more detailed and accurate results, Polycam allows you to upload up to 2,000 images. This range provides flexibility depending on the complexity and detail level you want in your final model.
How Long Can A Video Upload Be?
For video capture in Polycam, you can upload up to 30 minutes of footage to create a 3D capture. It’s important to note that Polycam only allows one video file to be uploaded per capture. If you have multiple video clips that you want to use, you’ll need to compile them into a single video file before uploading it to Polycam.
