Is the Insta360 X4 compatible with Matterport?

DanSmigrod

7 daysWingman (4339): I do not know if it can be used through the capture app but technically any 360 camera can be used with Matterport through Importing 360. The only problem, it may be quite possible that you take a bunch of 360 photos and it won't work through import because you have not covered enough area to align them in the app. So while it is possible to use any 360 camera and even stitched DSLR/mirrorless shots with Matterport there is a risk that your set...

2 monthsDataventurer (521): Back after some traffic research on SimilarWeb looking at the real estate market. It ain't lookin' as rosy for Homes.com as the article above presents. As Dan pointed out in the article, Homes.com spent $234 million in the last quarter, which produced a bump in traffic, but it was not classified as "organic" traffic. So Homes.com basically forked out the cash to get a place in the ranking. And the question that is asked in the...

3 monthsMeshImages (2969): I am convinced, that Costar will run Matterport as an independently acting daughter in their corporate group structure. It is important that Matterport on its own is successful. They will not cut out Matterport from platform competitors. For us Matterporters this can be a very good situation, if market players suddenly need the best 3D tour technology to stay on par with their competitors.

A while back, I compared Zillow, Cubicasa, and Matterport against the actual appraiser's floor Plan for a big house. I found that Zillow's measurements were on average 1% larger, Cubicasa was 1% smaller, and Matterport's floor plan was 12% smaller for the appraiser's room dimensions.

7 monthsBuster6070 (241): I'm wary of this. I believe my top client is a member of Homes.com and pays $1,000 a month. It sounds like members will get tours included with their membership, if so the math isn't in my favor. No way they'll pay a photographer market rate for a tour if that's their fee structure. Plus it sounds like they'll be subsidizing the camera and Matteport membership plan for they're photographers which will give them all the more reason to pay...

That's just to tour a home. We're all making 3D virtual tours. Why does anyone need an agreement to go visit a 3D tour of a house they're interested in. We're sitting on the biggest opportunities of our life. We just got to figure out how to make this happen.

And 3d tours are not important to fetch a higher sales price, on the contrary, it is solely because they elevate the home buying experience online exponentially, for buyers. And because they place 100% of potential buyers directly inside a property remotely, on demand, is the #2 reason. The main purpose...

It’s in the listing contract here in CA. So neither party has an agent advocating for their position. If you’re...

DanSmigrod

1 yearBuster6070 (241): No. I do offer a $150 credit towards a Matterport tour for first time clients ordering photography. That equates to a free scan up to 2500 sqft. I like that because it exposes agents to the benefits of a virtual tour and how it can produce increased views on Zillow to agents who would usually skimp on the product. Helps me attract new clients and makes it more likely they'll keep ordering it in the future.
