description This paper presents an approach for 3D reconstruction of heritage scenes using a videogrammetric-based device. The system, based on two video cameras with different characteristics, uses a combination of visual simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM) and photogrammetry technologies. VSLAM, together with a series of filtering algorithms, is used for the optimal selection of images and to guarantee that the user does not lose tracking during data acquisition in real time. The different photogrammetrically adapted tools in this device and for this type of handheld capture are explained. An evaluation of the device is carried out, including comparisons with the Faro Focus X 330 laser scanner, through three case studies in which multiple aspects are analyzed. We demonstrate that the proposed videogrammetric system is 17 times faster in capturing data than the laser scanner and that the post-processing of the system is fully automatic, but takes more time than the laser scanner in post-processing. It can also be seen that the accuracies of both systems and the generated textures are very similar. Our evaluation demonstrates the possibilities of considering the proposed system as a new professional-quality measurement instrument.
