| Matterporting all Commercial/Military Ships Around the Globe? Hi All, I read this article earlier today (5 May 2021): ✓ INQUIRER.net (5 May 2021) Pandemic pushes Philippine Navy maintenance training to virtual reality At first glance of the headline, I am thinking, "Oh! That (should be) Matterport!: a digital twin - including virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR) - of EVERY commercial/military ship around the globe!" Matterport digital twins of commercial/military ships (seems like it) makes sense: ✓ virtual training ✓ remote maintenance monitoring ✓ remote pre-prep for repairs and maintenance ✓ virtual tours by stakeholders ✓ fleet management ✓ “This is just the start, the tip of the iceberg. There are lots of possible things that we could do with this kind of technology,” [said Philippine Navy’s Naval Sea Systems Command (NSSTC) superintendent Commander Marcus Jason Bartolome in this news article.] But ... Here are some of the things that Matterport would likely need to do before commercial/military ships move forward with immersive Matterport digital twins [including virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR)]: 1. offer a capture solution that is faster than moving a tripod (drone? Trolley? Robot? Backpack?) 2. be scalable for the size of ships 3. processing and hosting on the client's servers (to avoid privacy and security concerns) 4. offer in-tour video chat (While there are services such as AgentRelay that do this, it's likely Matterport would need to offer this in-Matterport experience for tours NOT hosted in the Matterport Cloud.) 5. offer in-tour Augmented Reality (AR) - While there are services such as CAPTUR3D that do this, it's likely Matterport would need to offer this in-Matterport experience for tours NOT hosted in the Matterport Cloud.) I could imagine other Matterport-like platforms will be faster to accommodate digital twins of commercial/military ships around the globe: a 3D platform - or software - that includes automating tour creation (and likely) using non-proprietary platform specific 3D/360 cameras. What are your thoughts? Are these markets - commercial and military ships - large enough for Matterport to address these likely concerns? Best, Dan |

| @DanSmigrod was an interesting article. But lets address the elephant in the room and why Matterport will never work. 1. NO SELF HOSTING - These agencies, governments etc data is too sensitive to sit on a AWS server with a password. Dont care if you have Israeli password protection can be hacked. - we are currently working with a government, and Matterport was not the fit for them , as there is way too many restriction with the technology for them. No secure API integrations, so we develop a solution for them . 2. Matterport is limited to the number of scanning points. 3. Cant edit the panos ( only with SDK , or pay very high amounts to 3rd parties to do this ) 4. Cameras has too many limitations , image quality is bad, broken artifacts , outdoor capture , workflow too long and is not easy to use. Aka business in a box 5. Their VR experience is average compared to what is currently on the market for real spaces |
