About Rubén

I am a consultant specialized in reality capture and 3D modeling, with extensive experience in transforming real environments and objects into high-fidelity and realistic digital replicas. I work with advanced photogrammetry tools such as RealityCapture and Agisoft Metashape to develop accurate 3D models, used in sectors like cultural heritage, entertainment, and geology.

Throughout my career, I have led complex 3D digitization projects, including digital twins of historic buildings to environments for virtual reality productions. My focus is to offer a comprehensive service that ranges from initial capture to final model optimization, adapting to the specific needs of each client.

My skills include:

1. 3D data capture and processing using drones and high-resolution terrestrial cameras.
2. Integration of advanced technologies in heritage conservation, immersive entertainment, and virtual tourism projects.
3. Management of digitization projects ensuring accuracy, optimization, and compliance with technical and budget objectives.

If you are looking for a professional who can transform your ideas into impactful and realistic visual experiences, I am here to help you. My commitment is to create digital solutions that add tangible value to your projects, enhancing both visual fidelity and efficiency at every development stage.
