What it is
A 20-minute Blender 2.8 tutorial by CGMatter on baking a camera-mapped projected texture onto any custom UV map. It uses Cycles baking and some UV unwrap tricks, and builds on the same channel's earlier camera mapping tutorial.

You could also have a look at these tutorials on baking [this video] a camera-mapped texture from one UV to another, or painting [LINK] it.

Yes, the question is not clear. If you want to project the texture have a look here YT: Blender 2.8 Bake camera mapped projected texture tutorial [this video]

I have a 3D model for an object, and I want to get textures for it from many photos of the object, like in the image shown: [LINK] Is there a way to do this automatically? I know I could sample textures from photos and manually adjust it on the model, but for a project I'm working on, I'd like it to work automatically like photogrammetry techniques. By using feature detection, I can already get the position and rotation etc of the object and superimpose the 3D model over it, automatically. From this point, I'd like to project the image over the the model to effectively texture the model, and then repeat for all sides of the object. I'd like to be able to script this just using the data so th

You can use an object for UV projection to set up a map that won’t change as you change the topology. You can see here at around the 6:13 mark how to accomplish it. [this video]
