Price: Freemium
Description
Matterport provides cutting-edge technology for creating interactive 3D models (digital twins) of physical spaces, such as homes, offices, and commercial properties. Using compatible cameras or even iPhones, users can scan a space to generate a highly detailed 3D model, floor plans, and virtual tours. This tool is invaluable for real estate professionals for virtual showings, construction managers for site documentation, and businesses for facility management. Matterport stands out with its high-fidelity 3D models, ease of capture, and integrated AI (Cortex AI) that intelligently reconstructs spaces, recognizes objects, and generates floor plans from raw scan data.

2.Scan your physical space by moving the camera to various points, following the app's guidance.
3.Upload the captured data to the Matterport cloud for processing by Cortex AI.
4.Once processed, access your 3D digital twin, floor plans, and virtual tour link.
5.Customize your 3D model with "Mattertags" for added information or media.
6.Share your immersive virtual tour via a link or embed it on websites.
