   Something close to what you mention is dynamic scene capture, such as this paper: https://dynamic3dgaussians.github.io/ You can manipulate the splats in viewer, kind of similar to a pointcloud, something to the effect of h

   Thanks so much for mentioning this--I always wanted this too while I work at these sites! This tour took so many hours staring at Netherworld snakes reading the Book of the Gates, but there's so much more that could be added about the

   Thanks so much for the feedback! I added godrays and stars to the Netherworld scenes, turned off the dust, and made other improvements for rendering. I ended up switching from three's default renderer to the postprocessing package. I a

   That's so cool--and it's interesting to see how the 360 image tours have evolved over the years. I'm hoping gaussian splatting or nerfs will do better soon. You could try your photos in nerfstudio and see what type of results

   What a country.. it's incredible, right? I have some work from Saqqara that's publicly available on our Explore page, but there's so much 3d content to get through. And I'll add the Red Pyramid too, thanks!

   Thanks for letting me know--I took the dust out and changed the render pipeline a bit, and I hope this can help. It runs on my iPhone a little better now, but it didn't crash before.

   Thanks for the feedback. I took the dust out and reworked the render pipeline a bit -- and fixed some other things so you can't escape the same way in the Netherworld scenes.

    Hm, interesting--which browser/device are you using? I just double-checked, and I don't think the cookie is set before being accepted. But I could've done something wrong. When I test on my browsers on my mac, I'm not ge

    Yeah, all of this was just iPhone -- I did capture with Matterport's app. Some of the final results didn't have great lighting, etc, and a laser scanner would have much better quality. I wondered how this type of capture would loo

    I was the same way with this while I travel--it's definitely the future. I'm working on AI healthcare assistant where you can summarize a conversation with our plugin on ChatGPT or bot on WhatsApp and then send it to a real doctor

    I totally believe this too--I hope that it can help provide efficiencies and lower costs through the whole healthcare system.

    Haha, I know, I was feeling the same way sometimes in other countries where I traveled. I was working on this problem for referrals! I built a chatbot on whatsapp that right now connects to a real doctor to recommend to local clinics if som

    It's a really serious issue, and we've tested many of those types of questions/messages, but you can test for yourself also if you want. We state that it definitely shouldn't be used for emergency situations, and the cha

    Thanks for trying it and pointing this out--I haven't been working on the VR version for this reason. The web viewer provides movement through 360 photos instead of the 3d model.

    Great idea--I'll see if I can head back out to capture this along with more of the path to get to the Robber's Tunnel.

    Yes, you should be able to open the link in a VR headset with the in-headset web browser and then fullscreen to move through the 360 images in the virtual tour Free Explore mode if you like it, but I've only been working on supporting

    It was a challenging scan--but not very large. The toughest part was working around the tourists.
