| Saw this on the web... Why don't Matterport switch over to green lasers? Should make it easier to scan outdoors "The most unique feature of the eora 3D scanner is its green laser. Most consumer 3D scanners use a red laser, but digital camera CMOS sensors (like our eyes) are twice as sensitive to the green spectrum as they are to red. (It's how we evolved to better spot predators in the brush.) This means you can scan in a variety of lightning conditions, even outdoors. A green laser costs almost three times as much as a standard red laser." Ok, seems that cost can be a factor? |

| I don't think there's a laser in the Matterport camera. It uses an infrared source and triangulation to determine depth. | ||

 From behind the matterport camera  Facing the matterport camera I have taken the photos with an IR (night shot) Sony camera in total darkness, could see the dots nicely, and according to this its IR light source. |

@JC3DCX I think because Matterport found the right camera for the right price in the right quantity from the right supplier for the right time.  |
