In a method for creating a 3D representation of a recording object it is provided, with respect to recorded individual images (2, 3) from a recording object, to identify feature pixels (6, 7, 8, 9) respectively in a computer-aided manner by a feature detection, to calculate in a computer-implemented manner with respect to this feature pixels (6, 7, 8, 9), on the basis of correspondences in terms of content, respectively 3D points (11, 12) and camera poses (3, 4) of the individual images (2, 3), to fit at least one geometric primitive (14) into the calculated 3D points (11, 12) in a computer-implemented manner and to check in a plausibility check (15) whether a minimum discrepancy between the individual images (2, 3) results for the geometric primitive (14), and to output the geometric primitive (14) for which the discrepancy is minimized.
