Back in 2012 we announced that Tandent Vision Science had released Lightbrush, a tool designed to separate a photo into illumination and reflectance passes, essentially lighting and albedo, allowing for capturing texture maps from images and performing independent image manipulation on both textures and lighting. Since then the original tool disappeared, but it has now resurfaced as a web application branded Lightbrush Cloud. The service is currently available in alpha, you can read more in the documentation.
Has anyone gotten this to work? I know there are a few programs out there that does this and there are some that do a decent job but I liked Lightbrush as a standalone from a few years ago. More out of curiosity than anything else at this point.
Tried Chrome and Firefox, no luck, progress icon just loops. Tried different photos, tried letting it do its thing for hours but nope.
Same here, like the standalone version, and this one doesn’t work with chrome nor edge.
Sent a feedback, no reply yet.
same here…
Seems to work here with Chrome. But what other programs are there that do this?
@Eva ShaderMap, Substance Designer and others do this but I’ve never used another software that strips away shadows like it did so got my hopes up a bit for the website. Search for “get albedo (or diffuse) from photos” and you get some links.
Hopefully they’ll sort it out soon if they get enough traffic/interest.
I e-mailed the creators of Lightbrush standalone several years ago and they gave me a 30 day trial. I did a Youtube or Vimeo review of it but don’t have the video any more.
