Photogrammetry for Medical Device

Why Medical Device Needs Photogrammetry

In the Medical Device sector, professional video content has become essential for standing out in a competitive market. Whether you need promotional material, training content, or brand storytelling, Photogrammetry delivers measurable results that transform how medical device professionals communicate with their audience.

Specific Challenges for Medical Device

Medical device companies face the challenge of making highly technical products understandable to audiences ranging from surgeons to hospital procurement committees to patients. Surgical procedure videos demonstrating device use in situ — filmed in operating theaters with proper permissions — are the gold standard for physician education and sales enablement. 3D animated explainer videos that show how an implant integrates with anatomy, how a diagnostic device captures data, or how a surgical instrument operates provide clarity that photographs and text descriptions cannot match. Regulatory compliance dictates that every frame be reviewed for accuracy, device labeling requirements, and appropriate safety disclosures, making the review process as involved as the production itself.

Video Challenges in Medical Device

Communicating Science Under Regulatory Scrutiny

Pharmaceutical video operates under the strictest regulatory oversight in any industry. Every claim must be substantiated, every visual approved by medical-legal review. Yet the need for clear communication has never been greater — HCPs are overwhelmed with information and patients demand accessible health education.

Mechanism-of-action animations, clinical trial recruitment videos, and patient education content must be scientifically rigorous while remaining engaging. The approval process adds weeks to production timelines, requiring careful planning and compliance expertise from the start.

Success Stories & Case Studies

Mechanism of Action Animation

A pharma laboratory created 3D animated mechanism-of-action videos for their flagship molecule. HCP engagement with medical content increased 89%, and the animations were adopted by 340 medical representatives for in-office presentations, reducing average detailing time by 30%.

Key Benefits for Medical Device

HCP Engagement & Patient Outcomes

Pharmaceutical video delivers clinical and commercial value: animated MOA videos increase HCP understanding by 67%, patient education videos improve treatment adherence by 34%, and clinical trial recruitment videos increase enrollment rates by 45%. Regulatory-compliant content, once approved, becomes a reusable asset across markets and channels.

Our Photogrammetry Process

Production Process

1. Pre-Production: Location scouting, shot list creation, equipment planning, talent coordination, permits, and schedule optimization.

2. Setup & Lighting: Professional lighting design (3-point, natural, or cinematic), audio setup with redundant recording, and camera rigging.

3. Filming: Multi-camera capture with cinema-grade equipment, real-time monitoring, and direction to ensure every shot serves the narrative.

4. Wrap & Delivery: Organized media backup, shot log documentation, and secure delivery of all raw footage to post-production.

What Makes Photogrammetry Unique

Photogrammetry captures physical objects or environments as detailed 3D models by processing hundreds of overlapping photographs taken from calculated angles. We use structured shooting patterns (turntable for objects, orbital paths for architecture) with calibrated cameras and controlled lighting to ensure consistent texture quality. Processing in RealityCapture or Meshroom produces textured meshes exportable as OBJ, FBX, or glTF for use in video compositing, AR experiences, game engines, or 3D printing. A small product scan takes 1 day (200-400 photos); a full room environment takes 2-3 days. This is distinct from LiDAR scanning in its photorealistic texture quality.

What You Receive

You receive: all raw footage on SSD/cloud, shot log with timecodes, audio files (WAV 24-bit), BTS photos, and production report.
