Hi All,

From this WGAN Forum discussion:

I recognize that matterport has released their own version of lidar. I would have to abandon my current grandfathered plan to use it. I'm not excited to go that route. I would likely have to abandon matterport before then. In my market though, I see the BLK360 being a sweet point with my clients. I love the seamless integration into matterport. I find them accessing and appreciating the ability to walk through the space and their client meeting. It would be a shame for matterport not to support the next generation. I love any insight any of you can provide. Anybody heard any whisperings or anything? I just need to plan my next step.

Today I tried the Pro3 and did the same thing and it worked in the capture app, but once it was processed it does not show blue in the swimming pool, just the normal black space in the doolhouse.

Is this a thing with the Pro3?

Does anyone knows how to get around this?

Thank you in advance.

So I am assuming that the problem is in processing the job with the Pro3, scans on it.

This is something that Matterport should address in my point of view.

All the best, I hope this helps everyone.

I totally agree that this is something Matterport should address. It's really disappointing considering how much more expensive the Pro 3 is compared to the Pro 2- and how much of an eye-sore the big black hole is compared to an aqua-colored pool (in dollhouse view).

I will reach out to Matterport (possibly linking this thread?) and voice my/our frustration with this issue. And if anyone in the WGAN community happens to have any connections to the development team at Matterport and could pass this conversation on to them, I would be extremely grateful.

Hi All,

From the WGAN Forum discussion:

Help: How to scan multiple floors which are not connected?

- Entrance Area
- Ground Floor Communal Space and Meeting Room
- Ground Floor Laundry Room
- 1st Floor Community Kitchen Diner
- 4th Floor Community Kitchen Diner
- Roof Terrace
- Wellness Studio

I would appreciate any tips on how to combine all these separate parts of the building into a single Matterport model.

For this job, I will be using the Insta360 X3.

Thanks,

Imran

Matterport wants to get into the industrial scanning and documentation this would be so easy to just make the setting to invert camera and scan from tripod that lowers the camera upside down.🙃
