I am looking for ideas to make a camera which sees 3d wireframe at a image object . Additionally this camera must act at bulb mode while moving the camera around a building and camera must see a curvilinear 3d shape and record a wireframe for that.

I am impressed by Gothic ornaments , Art Nouveau and Fantastic Paintings of Vienna ecole. My quest is to make it possible to create a wireframe with camera while scanning a edgey object in to curvilinear object with free movement and finally create an wireframe.

This wireframe will go in to modelling software , evolutionary structural optimization plug in will increase the quality and subdivision modelling will generate a 3d object , building , tower or ship.

Later catia will develop in to a engineering Project and generate a construction plan with all details.

Software is ready but camera is not.

How would it be ?

So you would need a camera that either maintains its spatial relationship to the object being scanned, or a camera that could continuously measure, update and adjust. When I was working in metrology, I did a lot of 2D stuff just like this, taking images and building wireframe in CAD from the images. I found that contrast is needed, and also being able to adjust the light so edges were defined properly. Things as simple as a chamfered hole caused all sorts of errors in the model, because the edges would not maintain the same reflectivity all the way around.

This is not a small task you are trying to undertake, good luck!
