(Norcross, Ga./Sunnyvale, Calif., 13 June 2018) – Leica Geosystems, part of Hexagon, industry leader in measurement technology, and Matterport, an immersive 3D media technology company, today announced the availability of a reality capture solution for the real estate and Architecture, Engineering and Construction (AEC) markets.

Leica Geosystems redefined the imaging laser scanner market with the launch of the Leica BLK360, the world’s smallest and most powerful portable 3D imaging laser scanner. The Matterport media platform makes it easy for anyone to create immersive 3D and digital reality versions of real-world spaces for the web, mobile and tablet devices, and VR headsets.

The integration between the Leica Geosystems BLK360 and the Matterport platform is relevant to a wide variety of industries, especially in the residential and commercial real estate as well as AEC markets. For example, in commercial real estate you can engage decision makers and add critical value to the buying/leasing process with dimensionally accurate 3D walkthroughs.

Reality capture simplified

Through the power of the BLK360 and the Matterport reality capture and cloud platform, capture has become a simplified process where spaces can be digitised with just the touch of a single button. The interoperability of the BLK360 and Matterport's reality capture platform provides users an easy-to-use solution that can be used by anyone, anywhere, bringing a new means of delivering immersive 3D content.

“As space-as-a-service becomes the mantra for the real estate industry, real estate developers, property owners, space planners and agents need a streamlined way to digitise their offerings,” said Hexagon’s Geosystems Executive Vice-President Ken Mooyman. “With Hexagon’s expertise in 3D reality capture, combined with Matterport’s computer vision capabilities, real estate and AEC professionals can now access the high-quality content needed to create digital realities of real-world spaces from anywhere in the world.”

“By partnering with forward-thinking companies like Leica Geosystems, we are furthering our mission to democratise immersive 3D technology, making it easy for anyone to capture and distribute high-quality virtual experiences,” stated Matterport CEO Bill Brown. “A broader set of customers will now be able to easily harness Matterport’s powerful media platform, giving them more options for reality capture solutions and significantly aiding in the decision-making process throughout a property’s lifecycle. We’re excited to help these professionals enhance their offerings with our technology.”

The integration between Leica Geosystems’ and Matterport’s technologies is being demonstrated this week at HxGN LIVE in Las Vegas.

A perfect marriage! Our company has been integrating BLK and Matterport with some amazing indoor/outdoor results and winning higher margin AEC work. Generating more sophisticated AEC deliverables can be a little complicated.
