Abstract: The invention is directed to a stereophotogrammetric system and method for generating 3D images. A stereophotogrammetric unit, having a plurality of cameras, is structured to capture a set of images of an object at different angles. A controller is communicably connected to the stereophotogrammetric unit, and is configured to facilitate the simultaneous triggering of the plurality of cameras through a synchronized trigger signal, such that the cameras will capture respective images of the object at the same time. A processing module is configured to generate 3D image from the set of images captured. The controller may further be configured to facilitate the sequential triggering of a plurality of stereophotogrammetric units, such that the object in motion may be captured at increased frames per second. The processing module may further be configured to link together the plurality of 3D images in sequence to then create a 4D image.
