Matterport eBlast: Be the first to test the new Matterport VR for Cardboard (on Android) (Wednesday, 20 July 2016)

---

The app works nicely. There's no new information on pricing for conversion of models to Cardboard. If the price is reasonable, I'll love it. If not, then @GarySnyder will continue to make money off his 3rd party app.

In the meantime, I'm working on a web-based solution that involves exporting all data from the Matterport Tour and easy stitching of images. I don't want Cardboard to be limited to an app -- would like to embed it in a website so that people viewing a website will click a link and be transported -- then can grab their headset.

@metroplex360 that sounds like a great solution. I too think it'll be best when a specific app is required.

The app says it will auto download links opened. Any idea how this works? Can it only download converted links?

Be the first to test the new Matterport VR for Cardboard (on Android)

Dear Matterport Customer,

Viewing Spaces in Virtual Reality is easier than ever! As a Matterport customer, we’re extending a personal invite to join our open alpha for Matterport VR for Cardboard (on Android) and provide feedback. Matterport VR for Cardboard lets you experience Spaces from our public galleries or your private collection with a compatible Android phone and Google Cardboard viewer.

Sign up for the alpha here and click Become a Tester to gain access to the Matterport VR for Cardboard download.




Explore our Cardboard app

We’d like to draw your attention to the following features as you explore our Cardboard alpha:

Matterport VR Gallery. Explore a growing universe of VR Spaces. Travel back in time to ride on Rosa Parks’ bus, revel in the luxury of the Four Seasons Ty Warner penthouse, or play Peter Pan in the Neverland Fantasy Room. Gallery Spaces are available from the Gallery folder within the app, or from the Matterport Gallery on the web.

Options Menu. Control your viewing experience. All Spaces are defaulted to monoscopic views and no-motion transitions, which can be changed from this menu.

Help Menu. This handy in-app guide helps users understand VR Showcase controls and navigation.

Launch your VR Spaces from deep links. If you have converted your Spaces to VR, simply click your VR link or scan the QR code.

We want your feedback!

Matterport VR for Cardboard (on Android) is currently in open alpha. Please provide feedback via this form.

If you have any questions, please contact vr@matterport.com for support.

@ListAmerica I believe you are correct. You still have to pay Matterport for the conversion. It is my hope that @GarySnyder will still retain his niche for MP2VR as his product will be cheaper and offer advantages over this. IMHO, Matterport is going the wrong way with this. Cardboard should be built into Matterport Showcase on the web.
