We haven't thought that far yet, but you have a point about how we could apply this kind of storytelling to other industries. e.g. the story of environmental responsibility of a corporation. Since this kind of presentation is getting positive reviews, we may expand this concept further in the future. Thanks Dan as always for inspiring us with your...

If we could get access to the Raw Data from the Camera, this would give us to opportunity to try it out. Since the Point Cloud format does not include scan location, it is very hard to use it for remeshing....All we can do is use it has a template for remodeling.
