# NormalHeight

 

NormalHeight is a Blender add-on to compute depth from normal maps. 

It uses the Frankot-Chellappa depth-from-gradient algorithm. It can 

be used in conjunction with [DeepBump](https://github.com/HugoTini/DeepBump)

to produce height maps from single pictures.

# Installation

[Download the repo as a ZIP](https://github.com/HugoTini/NormalHeight/archive/master.zip),

then in Blender go to _Edit -> Preferences -> Add-ons -> Install_ and select the 

downloaded ZIP file. Then enable the add-on.

# Usage

In the Shader Editor, select a normal map _Image Texture Node_ and click _Generate Height Map_ in the right panel under the _NormalHeight_ tab.
