Virtual Staging by AI: Future Prospects For Virtual Staging With AI Implementation
Would have been much, much better visually if you made this video at night.
The battery on the remote does not last very long, so it’s like a $6 or $7 cost for one or two run throughs. Really chews through batteries.😮
Thanks for taking the time to make this video and provide feedback Tom!
My pleasure!
Nice video guys! Chris, please share the link for that foldable leg stand accessory! Looking forward to your blog post! Where will it be posted?
here's the link: amzn.to/3CnF4ix
Sorry what is this alignment? I don’t understand. I am a newbie
watch the video ;)
Greetings from Sydney, Australia mate, love your videos. They were a big help in me learning how to use the Planix Pro a year ago. Any chance you could do a comparison video with the new Planix R1 camera just announced today? It looks epic. Keep up the good work. Cheers
Hi, thanks.. they just announced the r1 today, I don't have it yet.
Hi . I'm planning to open similar business in middle east . I'm on the stage to create some adverts but I don't have yet pro 3 . Any chance for clean vertical video with pro 3 doing round scanning. Can't find any online
Which fomats can you export from software? rcp? pts? E57?
you can order an .e57 from matterport.
Thank you for this detailed how to video review! We hope CubiCasa Tour will be a great add-on for your photography packages 📸
thanks! it would be great if you could bring back the on screen mesh when scanning a space, it helps to show where we've scanned.
Also, are there any plans to offer white labeled tours?
So how to you edit the photo that couldn't be automatically placed in this video? Looks like the user was trying to find the path to make the edit but couldn't. What to do?
@@brantmuekeley7638 With the latest update, now the user can reorder the photos, a video tutorial will come soon
Bruh!! Back to the grind! You need to show me how to put your phone on the screen, that's pretty cool! do you have to have two phones?
Thanks, I've been trying to figure this out for a while.
dont think i will use unless It can be white labeled
I like that suggestion
Why did they remove the mesh, that was very helpful?
In this update, we have temporarily removed mesh visualization for users on iOS 18. Please note that the mesh is just a design feature and will not impact the quality of your scans or data collection. You can continue scanning as usual without any concerns.
I just asked about this, it was helpful to see it on screen. please consider bringing it back.
Hello, thank you for the great video. I tried to download the files from the provided link, but I received a message saying that the iGUIDE View is locked. I would appreciate it if you could provide an example of these files so I can evaluate if the device would be suitable for me before purchasing it. Thank you in advance for your help.
Hey Man i am from India and i am really impressed by your work,I am also in real estate photography and Virtual tours, can you guide me how you close clients and how you approach to new clients. You can also make a video about it.
Thanks for this demo. I haven't tried CubaCasa in a couple years but this looks quite interesting for clients who want more than just photos but not wanting full Matterport. Excellent demo!
Thanks for the helpful video! Could you please share an example of iGuide Planix output files? I'd like to ensure they meet my needs before making a purchase. Thanks in advance!
Have you been able to work on a comparison between the 2 point cloud files? I'm curious to see the quality difference. Thank you
Thank you!
It would be nice if you measured the outside of this house, calculated the area, and deducted the garage area to get the GLA. That would be a true comparison. The problem with some of these apps is they assume wall thicknesses. Here pre 1980 houses were 2x4, now they are 2x6. But even then some walls are 2x8. plumbing walls in bathrooms are sometimes 2x6
This house had 6" wall thickness.
@@sparksmediagroup thanks, but in terms of comparison to the true or actual GLA, instead of using the public record as a reference and not knowing if it is correct, you could also measure the outside of the house (@ foundation to exclude siding) and calculate the GLA. That would be the true GLA. Normally here it is also typically easy to acertain the actual because no one builds foundation to an oddball measurement. ie. if you cannot get to the foundation but you measure to the outside of the siding and the measurement is 40'2.25", the outside wall length excluding siding is likely 40'. I would then typically check this if I can by seeing if I can take a long measurement through the entire house with a laser and then add in the wall widths to see if it matches
I'm not an appraiser...I'm a real estate media provider. I understand what you're saying but its not something in my wheelhouse. We did an iGuide on this house which is ANZI z765-2021 compliant, in some jurisdictions cities recognize iGuide sq ft as public record. Fannie Mae recognizes it as well for appraisal purposes. one of the floorplans in this video I referenced was an iguide.
@@sparksmediagroup ok thanks, I'm starting to look at some of the apps and found your site, which I found was perfect to list them out and compare. I tried cubucasa yesterday. easy to use, but for a 5' hallway it recorded it as 4'6, so now I'm a bit concerned. So I was hoping for a definitive 'this app got the closest to the actual GLA', but I understand that is not that easy to determine.
I realize this is primarly used for mapping rooms, but can it be used to scan products? I have been trying to find something "easy" to do product scans, and I am talking things like wood-chippers, and tractors, and things like that - for the customer to perhaps either flip the product around or "walk" around it online.
I suppose you could scan a product although the lidar data for it might not be on as granular of a level as you'd like. I can hammer in a nail with a wrench but should I really be using that or just using a hammer? lol. I've done 3D tours of airplanes, cars, and large industrial generators.
@@sparksmediagroup traditional 3d scanners seemed to be so much more work for products. I have no experience, and this seemed like something I could get into. I'll look some more. Thank you.
Hi! HOW fast would you say the battery drains out. Some say round 2 hours..
the battery on what? sorry
For designing residential additions I need accurate dimensions, ceiling heights, window sill and head heights, floor to floor dimensions, exterior elevations, and files in .dwg format. Does Cubicasa do that ?
You'd have to check their website to see if it'll give you what you're in need of.
I noticed that when you take your interior photographs I don't see you setting up any type of flash or diffuser do you always use natural light when you take pictures or do you sometimes bring a c-stand with a Flash and diffuser?
My company and I have done 10s of thousands of homes all with ambient lighting (no flash).
@@sparksmediagroup that is extremely good news and I'm so glad to hear that I have all of the flash equipment but carrying all that around with large diffusers really would be extremely laborious so it's good to hear that you can just do it with natural light and not have to look around professional flash equipment thank you. I'm a little intimidated about getting started but once I have everything together I will reach out to you privately for a consultation to help me get started. You truly are amazing at what you do and your videos are absolutely priceless and so appreciated.
well thank you! yes, contact me when you're ready to talk.
I absolutely love your work are the interior video shots done with a good high-end camera on a fluid tripod head or were you actually flying a small drone inside the home?
Hi, thank you! most of the interior videos are done with a camera on a gimbal.
@@sparksmediagroup that makes sense I also purchased a Benro 3-Way Geared Head (GD3WH) and I can already tell that for interior shots on a tripod this is going to help a lot.
Great video I'm new to the industry and exploring the tools I have to be honest to tell you I just watched her one using your cell phone and to be frank your cell phone looked better in many ways than this is the one which cost almost $1,000. At that price you might as well go for the full lidar system for $2600. M2 camera when it talks about active spaces. In its pricing is an active space considered an entire home.
thanks! I only used the z1 for testing/comparison purposes. I have several Pro3 and pro 2 cameras that we offer 3D tours with. active space is 1 tour (so yes, an entire home if you scan the entire home in one tour).
@@sparksmediagroup yes thanks I spoke to their technical support and they agreed that the free version should have allowed me to scan my entire home but as I said after four scans he told me that there was no more space available. I was shooting the still images at 200 megapixels since my Samsung s24 allows that quality I thought it would be better the size difference between standard 12 megapixel and 200 megapixel photos was not very large the 12 megapixel or about 11 Mt and the 200 megapixel pictures more about 20 MB so those sizes to me still seem very small. The technical support team stated I should try again. I am not too thrilled so far with the reliability of this software but I will give it another try.
curious to see how it goes after you try again. I've generally had a great experience with customer service. but no one is perfect.
Hi thank you for the informative video. I am confused what you meant by having to go back because you did not record a video. What should I ensure I do to avoid this mistake, as I cannot find anything about this? Thank you, Steph
I went back to record the youtube video, nothing in regards to the iguide.
Hey! I just finished all of you instructions and the viewfinder and lcd screen are not working... any advice?
is it possible you tore into the ribbon cable at all? i did one and it shorted out because I accidently ripped the ribbon cable.
So it only notifies them if they go home and their apple device is registered to third house? Or will it alert them after a certain distance/time anyway??
it alerts them when they go to the location their device is registered as "home"
Is the basically the same for the A9?
I dont know, but i'd think so.
Thanks so much!! I wasn't able to find the select all, I was like, I can't believe there is no select all checkbox!! So, 1:21 in to your video I got my answer. 🌟
Wow!! - Thanks alot!! We are planning to use your excellent instructions to repair a similar problem with our Matterport MC250 Pro2 Camera. 🙏
Glad it helped
Does anyone know of an optimal tripod height for getting the best/most accurate scans?
I scan at about 5' or 5'5"
Hi, the link to the custom case isn't working. Great video as usual.
Check again please
thanks mate
You're welcome!
What software is being used doing this?
Relahq.com
Very nice video! Thanks! Is there any chance to shoot panoramas, adjust colors and lights at home, and build a tour on the computer? Then submit it from the computer.
thanks, and i dont think so.
Is speed the only difference between the cameras, because the difference in price is almost the double
no there's several more differences. matterport's website can clue you in.
question would the Ricoh Theta SC2 be as good as the Z1 ... debating on which one to buy being the Z1 much more expensive
I haven't used the SC2, I like the z1
so impressed
Thanks for all your efforts - the comparison of the cameras by shooting the same house multiple times is very appreciated. I'm curious if you tried to generate floor plans from this particular scan in Matterport seeing as you used LiDAR.
ah yes, I actually compared 8 different floorplans from this house. ruclips.net/video/759aXVtwU3c/видео.htmlsi=2whzbHF6naPsoPYt
I need a battery cause I have the camera I'm selling
Hello, im just wondering how much do you charge per project?
it varies based on sq ft, project size and budget.
love this content .... definitely subscribing
Awesome, thank you!
Thanks for sharing this wonderful video. As a season professional, do you recommend the iguide or matterport for beginners? As im looking to use the Insta 360 as my device
hi! thanks for the comment. either is good. they both serve different clients in different ways. iGuide is cheaper to get into than Matterport but Matterport has its admirers as well.
I may have missed this, but would another floor be on the same video/order?
the entire house is 1 scan... so multiple floors can be scanned on the same order
Good idea to upload the floor plan while you’re there. Lots of times, I save for later and upload when I get home. Never had an upload fail, but there’s always a first time.
yeah i found it best to just upload on site.
How did you not get an enormous number of misalignments with how similar the seating areas are? Is it similar at all to like a hallway in a hotel where if everything looks the same you can't make much progress?
The pro3 generally does not have a lot of misalignments, I got some, but i kept the scan points close so that helped avoid a lot. I also used the manual align a few times.
Hi i have an insta 360 x3 with sticky lens, & I know the stichibg isn’t the best. Any tips in how to fix the stitching with Zillow?
Hi, sorry, I don't have any tips on this.
Worked great!
Great to hear!
