The demo is fluid and works well, but I'm not sure I understand what problem this is solving when things like Matterport are already doing this with real images of spaces. It doesn't require floor plans. In many cases floor plans aren't easily available. Polycam and others are helping with automating the creation of 2D and 3D models from real spaces using LIDAR scanning. How is Roometron different from any of the other tools that are on the market?
- streakolay 2y agoMatterport are quite expensive, it can be as $500 / year to store few of your 3d walkthroughs. And Im not trying to replace it or something, I just knew that many online floor plan aggregators, construction builders and etc looking for a way to turn their floor plans into 3D or walkthrough videos.
- gamblor956 2y agoWhat market segment are you targeting that needs 3d walkthroughs of real estate but finds $500/year too expensive?
- ghostly_s 2y agoAdmittedly I have no idea what an "online floor plan aggregator" is, but I don't see why any of Matterport's commercial property management customers would want to put in the far greater amount of work this requires of them rather than just throwing some money at Matterport to come out and scan it?
- mattfrommars 2y agoMatterport needs cameras and specialize rig to convert into fully working 3D model. Does yours make a virtual 3d model and builds a wire frame using 2D image of a floor plan?
- jp0d 2y agoWe're building our first home with a local construction company down here in Australia. I remembered browsing house designs using a virtual 3d plan that enabled me to walk around the house. Your idea looked very similar. I found one example online and turns out they're using Matterport. https://www.carlislehomes.com.au/home-designs/canterbury/?c=Grand+Atrium&v=47 https://www.carlislehomes.com.au/home-designs/canterbury/?c=...
