Add Blender Add-on section

#14 (comment)

How about adding a Blender Add-on section somewhere?

https://github.com/SBCV/Blender-Addon-Photogrammetry-Importer
https://github.com/Stwend/MeshroomTools
https://github.com/tibicen/meshroom2blender

https://github.com/stuarta0/blender-photogrammetry

https://github.com/cogitas3d/OrtogOnBlender
(https://github.com/cogitas3d/OrtogOnBlender/blob/master/FotogrametriaMeshroom.py)

---

meshroom_tools is a closest point alignment addon for Meshroom in Blender

---

blender-2.80-photogrammetry reads meshroom sfm

---

OrtogOnBlender
runs meshroom from within blender (simple)

---

The projects have similar, but not identical features.
At the moment, I can recommend meshroom2blender and Blender-Addon-Photogrammetry-Importer.

• Blender-Addon-Photogrammetry-Importer imports sfm/json files generated by the ConvertSfMFormat node. Loads Point Cloud, Cameras, Image Planes and Animated Camera.

• meshroom2blender can load .mg files. Loads Point Cloud, Cameras, Image Planes, Mesh, Texture

Make Pipeline Step Links More Obvious on #photogrammetry Page

This is a little embarrassing to admit after going to the home page many times over the last 6+ months... but I've only just discovered/realized that the pretty icons at the top of https://alicevision.org/#photogrammetry are links to a lot more, very useful, information.

(They also scroll off the top when you're reading on smaller screens.)

Perhaps a link at the bottom of each stage to the next?

This may also be an accessibility issue(?)
