Realsee AI feature removes the camera from all mirrors in 1-click ron0987 1 14 daysron0987 (3257): I just did a new house and was editing it. While going thru the editing features I came to the good old remove the camera from the mirror feature, nothing new I though. This house had four bathrooms, and the camera was in the mirror in several views as you walk up to several of the doorways leading to one of the bathrooms. I clicked on remove the camera and waited for it to work, the first time I used it one camera one mirror it worked...
Matterport tours for RE agents & sharing? JeremyATGenesis 14 18 daysBuster6070 (241): Agree with what's above. For pricing I would Google real estate photography in your area to see what your competitors rates are for a base line and what services they offer. 6 month contract is good for hosting. That's the average lising agents contract with the seller. If you're using a Pro 3 I would be sure to mention it. I use a pro 2, but have a competitor in my market that use a Theta Z1. My client noticed the difference immediately

Video: Tip for using a Ricoh THETA Z1 to "Jump" within a Matterport Scan DanSmigrod 3 2 monthsWingman (4345): Honestly I am not getting what was the need to do 47th on top of 32nd. He could just do 47th where he did 48th saving one scan. And if the whole idea was not to create misaligned walls it would be more beneficial to do 47th close to 32nd somewhere because doing it on top or with 1-2 inches offsetting it is absolutely pointless.

Help: How to scan multiple floors which are not connected? fakharimran 13 3 monthsron0987 (3257): @Sdoughtie I have tried several elevator setups and have not been able to get even one to process correctly in Matterport. I have not been able to find a single elevator add on that works. An easy resolution would be Matterport allowing us to disable floors, so like you pointed out use the staircase to build the model and then cut out each floor between the floors not needed.

Wishing Matterport would use AI to automatically remove tripod shadow ron0987 7 5 monthsWingman (4345): If you mean using a 3rd party to get original resolution panos via download and stitching, editing them and then building the tour again using Import 360 in the capture app you won't get an original resolution. Even if you supply 134mp pano through import they will be reduced to 8K(32mp) by Matterport before processing them. And moreover instead of using captured 3D data with a lidar to build your tour it will use Cortex to produce 3D data and...

What is the correct height when using a Matterport Pro2? JimmyJim 8 7 monthsGETMYVR (1913): It's a good question. For most bedrooms, the living room and hallways I ahoot about chest level. Once I get in the bathroom I'm probably about 1 ft above the vanity. Also, when you do bathrooms it's good to do a second low shot right into the bathroom. For kitchens I bring it up a little bit higher, 5.5' because everybody wants to see the countertops. When I do 360 scans outside I bring it up about 5 ft. 5 to 6 ft.

Scanning Occupied Spaces - Challenges rhelling 6 9 monthsVanaman06 (85): @ron0987 I am scanning with a pro 3. I am doing the same thing but I usually just skip past one scan where the door is and keep going into the next room. Every once in a while the pro 3 will give me an alignment error so I just keep going to get some addition data since I am scanning the next area anyways. Even though rare it saves me from having to rescan. I’ve never had an issue with a door blocking the pathway as long as I scan on...

Tip for generating more income: How I made $1,000 via Airbnd and VRBO fotoguy 3 1 yearGlennTremain (2895): I would put terms and conditions on your site and on invoices put the link to it so disclosure is prominent but discreet.

Also don't make it prominent in your email signature or in invoices........just a link to "terms &...

Video: 5 Mistakes New Real Estate Photographers Make DanSmigrod 3 1 yearBuster6070 (241): Great tips. Really like the first one on getting above the bottom plain if the cabinets. However don't agree with the 2 wall approach of shooting rooms. I feel including just the edge of a third wall gives the room depth and perspective. Otherwise it looks like you went around shooting corners of a room and viewers have no idea what the real shape and size are. But great thing about our job is it's very subjective.

Can't wait to try this on my next scan. This is an advantage iGUIDE has had over Matterport. I never understood why Matterport doesn't just add this feature. Still not something I would incorporate into my workflow to adjust white balance or fix minor details. Just too many steps. But for his example it's perfect. Matterport should make this an actual feature.

Matterport Scanning Tips for Accuracy? Olegred 3 2 yearsWingman (4345): if it is just for a floor plan it depends on geometry of a space and how far a lidar that is being used can see. Some rooms say small bedrooms may need just one scan in the middle to capture all distances in x, y and z and one scan close to a doorway to capture it and provide enough points for registration for any space behind that doorway where you are going to do another scan. However even for bedrooms one scan may be not enough as for a built...

Carson 2 2 yearsPhilly (86): I've checked into openhaus a few times, but it just kind of irks me that you claim simple pricing, no hidden fees, yet hide them behind a sales lead form. I'd love to think of ways to sell your product and apply them in the real world, but can't even do that without knowing how or what your charge. "Give us your info and we will tell you what we want you to pay" is not very enticing to me.

How to make an Intro + voiceover in a Tour? rodrigocastillo 4 3 yearsMeshImages (2993): @rodrigocastillo Hi Rodrigo, you can create this type of tour experience with 3DVista. If you want to use Matterport and add voice-over effects at certain positions (also during flythrough playbutton) you should have a look at MPEmbed. MPEmbed allows you to add actions (also action "play audio") to every panorama position. Treedis allows it too, but I prefer the MPEmbed editor with Matterport.

Matterport — Baby Steps into the Metaverse Carson 5 3 yearsWingman (4345): None, because Matterport has not been created for 3D so they cannot built a good 3D model. You can hover use it to collect some 3D data and then manually clean & fix it. Sure it is faster than doing it from a scratch but still should cost a few 1000s to build a clean 3D model with realistic textures from a Matterport tour and Matterpack.

Advice for scanning large spaces (Galleries, Museums etc) tinsoldier 9 4 yearsbriangreul (684): I generally will do at least one overlapping scan. Sometimes I'll do 2 or 3, just depends on how squirrely the space is. I will also sometimes force close the app and reboot the camera to make it start over with alignment. The alignment algorithm seems to be weighted to the last 3 to 5 scans. There are sometimes good reasons to jump around with large spaces, especially when coming around the core of a building.

Any idea how this tripod is remote controlled (for Theta Z1)? ArchimedStudio 10 4 yearsArchimedStudio (708): @Fmarta I was also thinking about this avenue. Can you share photos of your setup? It's not so much to create a Matterport tour while I stay seated on the couch sipping margarita and controlling the vacuum remotely. It's more to create a 360 video walkthrough.

Demand for video tours 8643d 16 4 yearsHome3D (4091): I agree that "slideshow videos" which some older agents still refer to as 'virtual tours' are boring, redundant, and make an agent look WAY behind the times.

But, you make a good point which can’t be over stated. Whether it’s Asteroom, Kuula, Hippos for 360 (joke), one doesn’t need 20 scans to capture a few rooms.

Scanning with multiple floors (no stairs) Wonderdawg 6 5 yearsWingman (4345): You can leave scans on steps in case somebody wants to walk them so elevator buttons will be just for those who do not want to go through steps.

Tip: How to create a 3D aerial fly-in with DroneDeploy and GeoCV DanSmigrod 7 6 yearsAntonYakubenko (686): I doubt it would work. As I described above, shooting for 3D model extraction from aerial images using photogrammetry requires many images all around the house taken with large overlap. I doubt externally sourced imagery would be sufficient. Moreover we require regular images, not 360 panos for 3D model extraction. 360 panos though could be used as Highlights and Fly-through in addition to 3D scan.

I've used every zoom setting from 70% to 140%. Since it's fairly wide angle to begin with, many times the higher zoom is perfect if you need to highlight a certain feature.
Oculus Go - Matterport MarkCantu 7 7 yearsTosolini (4338): @3dvirtualview The Go works with WiFi. I did two tests on MP tours.

Then I experimented running a MP tour in the Oculus browser (just type the URL or navigate to a MP embedded into a page). The experience is not immersive, as the browser is just a rectangle container in front of you. But you can click on...

I hadn't analyzed how Multimedia Mattertags are functioning for images, so I missed what the changes were :) I found the change as I monitor the showcase platform for coding changes for this exact reason -- fun discussions! I also monitor changes because I take a great sense of comfort from seeing how well the platform is engineered and how much time and effort is put into it! @Helen - I...
Preschool Marketing Dept. Concerns 3SixtyNow 3 8 yearsOpenHouseOptics (208): Statistics show that people go where they are familiar - if anything, them seeing it online will encourage a site visit AND increase enrollment because parents feel like they KNOW the environment. It's based on the same psychology we use when teaching fire safety or mass panic situations, look for the exits that are OPPOSITE of where you came in because people will go the way they are most familiar.

HDR BackUp Q Outside Matterport Services VTLV 3 8 yearsHarlanHambright (2133): 1. It is redundant to shoot RAW for HDR. Except for tweaking color temp, the HDR process is giving you as much dynamic range that RAW will, so shooting in-camera JPEG will alleviate a lot of storage issues. And you can color correct a jpeg just as easily. 2. After you have processed your HDR files, you can delete the original camera files. I have only on a few occasions re-processed old camera files and that was because early HDR was pretty...

360 Outside with moving cars Wonderdawg 2 8 yearsVTLV (2892): Very lucky or recent updates this year have gotten better. I had issues shooting balconies where cars behind would give alignment errors. Later doing similar shoots, I had stretched out cars on the road. In your instance, I like how the trees block off a good portion of the vehicles as the motor spins left to right. If the cars were to be in a direct line of site opposite the house is the worry point for me.

3D Showcase vs Direct Sunlight Conditions matthew 6 8 yearsJonJ (1760): I agree with Douglas with regards to how this scan is possible. By my estimation, the camera is set to a height of only 3 ft 6 inches. The scan positions are also very close together. The third thing that makes this possible is the fact that all of the surfaces available are solid. This allows for sufficient structures to allow for correlation of scan points. Also important to note is the fact that the dollhouse view is very incomplete....
mp2sqft.com - New interface... working? ArchimedStudio 6 8 yearsMetroplex360 (9436): MP2SQFT uses data that Matterport generated from the patched OBJ that is seen in showcase. The patched OBJ is the OBJ generated by the tour with areas that were missing data 'filled in'. JuMP uses the downloadable OBJ file without the patched data. That's why there's a discrepancy. I'm fairly confident that both JuMP and Matterport are calculating SQFT based on surface area of the OBJ files. If JuMP were to intercept the OBJ file used by...

So you may want to choose your assistant's name in their account to be reflective of how you want their work to show.

Best Camera Height? Helen 5 8 yearsaristepp (58): I agree completely. I started shooting at the recommended 60 inches and I found that I shot a lot of ceiling space and that it was so high that my photos were oddly lobbed off at the bottom. 60 inches is just too high. 4.5 to 5 is right. No matter how high the ceiling is, you don't want lobbed off images and I sell a lot of packages, image and walk through.

Kickboxing gym Ramblinman 4 8 yearsTrustedPhotoDC (1108): The height of the ring should not matter. If the camera can see the top of the ring when scanning from the floor, you will just add additional geometry. If you were to add a second floor(i.e. the ring), Matterport would most likely combine in the stitching and publishing and give you back only one floor.

Limiting the Horizon Line of Matterport? srennick 3 8 yearsterrygrant (34): We install floor and wall tiles so have much the same issue sometimes. What I have done is to set the camera lower on the tripod, you have to experiment a little. This reduces the size of the blurred area on the floor and has the advantage of not seeing the camera in any mirrors. I guess if you set it very low then you would certainly be more focused on the floor. Good Luck. Terry

Something Strange want to call Ghostbusters Gerhard 4 8 yearsRobinLycka (727): I`m going to place my bet on the palmtree that´s captured outside the bedroom. Probably happened due to the way the pointcloud splits the floors, and the palm tree is perceived as ground floor, the first floor bedroom right next to it is perceived as part of ground floor due to it being the same height to the slanted ceiling. There´s a hole in the mesh in the bedroom wall, maybe a trim line that´s placed to close to the wall from the outside....

In any case, the most significant and, I would say the only relevant, syndication is done through the local MLS, hands down. Gus

Queues For Successful Scan Outdoors thebiggerpicture 11 9 yearsJonJ (1760): When I say done, I mean you have captured everything in the space that you want/are able to in the first pass.

Very happy that the result was otherwise, albeit not needed as it was only a utility and a small cloakroom. Thanks for the suggestions :)

Matterport Cloud and File Downloads BDPelton 3 9 yearsron0987 (3257): Hi @BDPelton, the actual models are all hosted in the cloud/Matterport server and accessed thru their access portal and there is no way to download a finished model. You can download an OBJ file which can be used with other software programs but in that format are useless to show as a model. An OBJ is more of a 3D modeling format that can be converted to be used for again other programs. I hope that helps. Ron

Model orientation on iPad Hamid 2 9 yearsjosephthomp (62): I saw this on the forum a couple weeks back from another member who gave the tip of aligning the camera on the very first scan.

I can't recall but I think if you start with the camera facing North it then North will be at the top on the iPad, maybe the original member can gave that tip can confirm.

Saving Scans to Free Up Space DaveFahrny 2 9 yearsContextImaging (10): I delete my models on my ipad once they are uploaded and are looking good online. I've had only one instance where I needed to go back and change a window on the 2nd floor balcony of this one listing because it cut down through to the first floor and made navigation in that area impossible. So I don't immediately delete once uploaded, but rather once I know the scan is rendered properly.

On the other hand we're selling mostly software, which isn't featured yet in Zillow and yet gives brokerages quite a hard time to embed on properties, there's lots of improvement on the back-end yet to be done......

Other Uses 4 Marking Features: Window-Mirror DanSmigrod 10 9 yearsccctucker (154): The reason behind the markers is to stop the errant points that result from the IR penetrating the glass, resulting with skewed points that tell the computer that there may be another room there.

This is why you see "overspray" in the dollhouse mode, the marker may have been put on, but there is a gap between the actual wall and...

Blinds Open-Blinds Shut seanminor 4 9 yearsDanSmigrod (31336): @seanminor 1. I begin capture with a compass so that, when possible, I do not have direct light into the windows. 2. If I can not avoid bright sun, I will do my best to capture the room anyway. Then, I will return to that room (during the same shoot) to add the "walk around" scans. (All other scans where needed for the Dollhouse, Floor Plan and to keep moving to the next space, BUT these "sunlight" scans get...

The sellers stated they decided to work with us because of our cutting edge technology which of course included digital showings.
Sanning times REMAX_EDGE 2 9 yearsCarlosFHdz (605): At first, it takes longer because you're being conservative on the distance from scan to scan point. As you get more practice, it will be faster. You will start to push the distance from each scan, specially in bigger rooms. Now, we're at about 35 min per 1000 sqft. I personally did a 6300 sqft property in 3 hours and 4200 sqft property in 2 hours. The layout of the home is also a determining factor in time to scan. I would recommend...
Subterfuge in Marketing CathieRasch 1 9 yearsCathieRasch (115): We had an interesting revelation tonight. We are an early adopter in our area and, I believe, we have the first Matterport camera in our area. I've been working hard on our search rankings because Matterport is coming for the SC/NC Association of Realtors Convention which begins tomorrow. I did a search to see what my rankings are, imagine my surprise when videos came up when I typed Matterport Hilton Head Island! Turns out that someone is...

Getting Showcase ready for Gear VR headset Rik 7 9 yearsQueen_City_3D (3144): @kc1302 I agree that cardboard will be VR for the masses and I hope that Matterport VR Showcases will be available in that format. You can order google cardboard kits out of China for as little as $2.19 shipping included, which would make it affordable to buy several hundred to brand and hand out as promotional tools. Only effective though if the VR Showcases will work with Google Cardboard. That said, I've used some Google Cardboard apps...
Sky Light problems DigitalImageries 7 9 yearsDanSmigrod (31336): @DigitalImageries In your Capture workflow, when you have direct sunlight, do that space later in the shoot (as described by @ccctucker). When that's not possible - shooting a stairwell that has a skylight, for example – that you need to shoot to get to the next floor, shoot the stairwell anyway. Then, during the same shoot, return to the stair well to re-scan. In 3D Workshop, disable the original scans. Dan
Improving My Scans THRHHI 3 9 yearsTHRHHI (292): Thanks for the input Jamie. I understand what you said using the workshop. I went and researched and like your idea of shooting the closets if for nothing else to capture the data to fill in the dark spaces. That has been annoying me. Next on the list is the video aspect for my wife's real estate videos. So far the screen capture is way to choppy for my liking. I have tried several that i already have but not happy with the results. Always...
Download Screen Capture Errors Queen_City_3D 11 9 yearsrpetersn (2010): Hey Dan... Where would the static text come from...is this something unique you'd want to enter/set for yourself? Or, could it use the name of the model? Something like this could be possible...but it'd be a bit more work on my end. Maybe we can put a bounty on this for me to put some more time into it? I'd be willing to continue to cover the hosting cost.

Privacy / HIPPA rules Wonderdawg 6 9 yearsQueen_City_3D (3144): A few months ago I inquired to Matterport Support about the ability to obscure/"blur-out" objects in a scan. I mentioned that if a picture frame or something else is captured that the client would rather not be there, it would be neat to be able to draw around it in the Matterport Workshop and have that section then be obscured when scanned from the public model. They responded stating "a feature like you describe is already...

Marketing/users collaborate justinS 2 9 yearsCathieRasch (115): Justin, I am a real estate agent and I just ordered a Matterport. I can't wait for it to arrive. From an agent standpoint it 1)allows me to provide my sellers with better service and market their home in an innovative manner 2)gives the buyer the opportunity to view their home in 3D which may reduce the number of showings to people that were looking for a home that had x that this home does not 3)provides the prospective purchaser with a...
Changing start location of tour justinS 4 9 yearsjessetutt (67): Make sure all the lights are on. The lighting isn't that good in the space. I find the blue led lights make the spaces look harsher than they are so lighting can be an issue. I wish I had the basement during my college years!

Shooting Detached Garage and Above Gameroom seanminor 9 9 yearsJohnBecker (388): When you scan the second floor of the garage, it should be a separate "floor" that isn't the same as the second floor of the house. I had a situation like that and Bob Horn at Matterport said that two non-contiguous "second floors" would have to get separate floors assigned to them in Capture. This may have changed since then, but it seems like the safe way to do it.
Marketing Idea Queen_City_3D 10 9 yearsjimduquette (10): Items are always market to market. I ran a couple of properties on individual pages and had good traffic. We've had very good luck on the weekends with people texting in. At the end of the day, its all about lead capture. In an industry where we spend $1,000's/month on lead capture, getting 6-8 text ins every week off of 6-10 signs for $20/month is a good return on investment.

Lighting Techniques for inside Wonderdawg 7 9 yearsron0987 (3257): Dan, I understand what you are saying about the first scan and using a grey scale to set the WB but with wide range of areas covered I do not see that working. Because if you set it for a Kitchen that could have fluorescent, halogen and or led lights then move to an area that has incandescent or natural light which would again throw the balance off. I think that overall it is good. But I have noticed this being an issue when I moved from...
Pro Tip: Deactivating Scans in 3D Workshop DanSmigrod 6 9 yearsMDuff (28): Hi Dan, Just sent the photos the mini maps, but after reading Cindiewozniak tips from Matterport regarding outdoor scanning, there is mention of not being closer than 18" from anything. I think my 2 scans with issues may be because they were shot to close to the walls. I was trying to get the biggest angle for the lens, but this is news to me about being to close to something. I love this forum as I'm really learning from everyone. ...
