Photos in; out comes a 3D model (GLB) at the object's real size and its metadata as JSON. A profile for each kind of object; add your own.
Turns photos of a real object into two files that belong together, a 3D model (GLB) at the object's real size in millimeters and its metadata as JSON (read off the object and looked up), for any kind of object it has a profile for, such as a book, a graded trading-card slab, a raw trading card, anything box-shaped, a badge's cut-out artwork, or bubble lettering of a few words. Use when the user wants a 3D model, a GLB, or a three.js or Blender asset of a physical object they have photos of, or a catalog of their things as models with their metadata.
Makes, checks and contributes a thicken profile, the plug-in that teaches thicken a kind of object (its real sizes, its shape, what's printed on it worth reading), so thicken can make 3D models (GLB) and metadata of that kind from photos. Use when the user wants thicken to handle a kind of object it has no profile for (a record sleeve, a coin capsule, a cassette), to improve one of thicken's own profiles (truer sizes, more it reads), or to offer their profile to thicken as a pull request.
