Getting a full 3D visualization of a construction site is a trick that a few off-the-shelf tools can offer, but what you do next with that data is the real challenge. That’s the focus now of the reality-capture camera manufacturer Matterport, which is broadening the ways its 3D captures can be delivered for design tools, virtual reality and, eventually, full augmented reality viewing.
“There is a technology gap that Matterport is filling,” says John Chwalibog, the company’s director of AEC services. Matterport’s Pro2 camera can do full image capture and then, with a one-button press, send it to the cloud, where software converts the scans to a 3D model.
