How to display the obj model file saved by sample RF_ScenePerception?

[SL4]

I have tried solidworks 2015 but failed to open it.

And I wonder why there is no any similar reconstruction demo for SR300 but only for older R200?

The 3D modeling software Blender has been proven to be compatible with .OBJ files that originated in RealSense. You can also convert a RealSense-generated .OBJ file into a .PLY format file in order to retain any color information.

Thank you! I downloaded MeshLab and import the .obj file successfully.

The reconstructed scene looks better than the scene displaying in real time in the sample.

By the way, is there any similar reconstruction sample for SR300?

Are you asking about 3D scanning programs that will work with the SR300 camera? If so, I often recommend ReconstructMe, which has a version that works with SR300. There is a download link for it on the web-page I have linked to below.

I have tried it.

But there is not SR300 in device list?

And the programme always stops working when I connect my R200 and select the Realsense R200 option. I have no idea what's wrong with it...

I researched ReconstructMe's RealSense support further after seeing your report and other people's who could not get SR300 as a selectable option despite the announced compatibility. Looking further back, some people started having problems with older cameras such as the F200 and R200 after the 2016 R1 SDK was released. This has some commonality with the popular Faceshift scanning software, which would not work with 2016 R1 onwards.

So whilst ReconstructMe seemed ideal for the SR300 at first, in reality after further research it may be better to try a different program. But as you want to export an .obj file, the options are limited. I have become aware though of a motion capture program called Ni-Mate that claims to have SR300 compatibility and can be used with Blender. I don't know if that is suitable for what you want to do with your project.

Now I am using R200 instead. I have spent so much time. Perhaps R200 is the best choice for me temporarily. Thank you a lot for all the help!
