| Hi All, Moments after I posted about theVRkit + Zillow 3D Home, I received the email below .... Your thoughts on iStaging versus Matterport? Dan --- Hey Dan, what's the difference here in terms of hardware, do these guys sell to iStaging or vice versa or do they just both by the blank and brand themselves... Confused sent this privately so not to murky the thread around your super offer. I just dusted my old motr galileo, your old space right? just saying the tech hasn't moved on that much in 3 or so years [redacted] --- Hello [redacted], Thanks for reaching out. I could imagine that the same company is China is the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) for both theVRkit and iStaging rotators. Order enough and you too can likely have your company name on it. About the Motrr Galileo + Sphere App - Yup! About eight years ago, I proposed, negotiated and implemented the marketing alliance between Sphere (formerly known as TourWrist) that paired the rotator with the Sphere app. (And, thanks to the Sphere tech team, did the software integration in record time to enable an easy, fast and quality 360º spherical image capture. As far advanced as that was, it seems like legacy technology today. So, I am surprised (and not surprised) to see Zillow use the sample imagine capture process that was around eight years ago. I "get it" that they want to offer something that is proprietary to Zillow; and, to be able to say that you can do it for free. No camera to buy. No processing. No hosting. That said, seems like integrating Matterport - and other 3D Tour platforms - would be a bigger, faster play for Zillow. About iStaging using the rotator, I could imagine that they are working as fast as they possible can to enable 360º cameras to seamlessly integrate with their platform. With more than 80 360º 1-click cameras - many for under $1,000 or even $500, seems like a no-brainer to enable 360º 1-click camera integration for much faster workflow and enable workflow outside of real estate (when you have people in the 360ºs). Thanks for letting me walk down memory lane. Best, Dan P.S. Is iStaging competition for Matterport? Is it a "good enough" solution for DIY real estate agents (or even photographers)? |

P.P.S. I received this nice note back from [redacted] when I asked how s/he knew about my past life ... like to research groups and join specific/worth while ones, run by folks of long standing in the space. So your background was super impressive to me and you created a really great forum of like minded, community of folks who generally want to help the space..."--- Not possible without all of you. So, thanks for checking out the WGAN Forum, thanks for joining and thanks for posting. |
