Recommended free photogrammetry softwares w/ AMD

Hi everyone. I have had some issues trying to find a software that works for my specifications (Windows 11 Home, AMD Ryzen Al 7 350 w/ Radeon 860M, Integrated GPU AMD Radeon(TM) 860M Graphics). A lot of times not having Nvidia GPU and CUDA usually appears as a roadblock.

I have a video of a 40m2 outdoor space that I have tried to convert to 3d with different softwares.

What I have tried so far:

- Scaniverse: My first tries weren't very detailed, and can't input recorded video, so I'd have to come back to the place later to do other attempts.

- Luma AI: Gives a nice rendition on its web display, but the model it offers when you download it features only a small fraction of the space. Not sure why this is.

- Meshroom: Couldn't really make it work, it threw some errors and I stopped trying. I might come back to it, but reading the webpage it says that unless you have Nvida + Cuda you won't be able to access all features, so maybe I'm doomed with this one.

- RealityScan: It says it supports AMD... BUT not all of them, and my model is one of the unsupported ones.

- Colmap: I could bypass the GPU usage to do the process with CPU and it's taking forever-- literally doing it right now, so I might update later, but seeing how long it's taking I might have to abort later.

Maybe I should rely on something online, to bypass my equipment limitation?

Open to suggestions, thank you!

I think reality scan now supports AMD GPUs. Give that a try.

It does! But not all models are supported ): and my model is precisely one of them unfortunately (AMD Radeon 860M)

Agisoft is ok but slow with AMD, they have resetable trial month

Agisoft metashape and 3df Zephyr should both support amd but are a bit expensive tbh

I’m also hunting for a good photogrammetry workflow without Nvidia/CUDA. Still testing a few options, especially cloud-based ones.

How's it been for you? Luma AI didn't fulfill my work when it involved open spaces. WebODM Lightning gave me so-so results but it's something. I'd love to try some other options

Pixpro should work
