Capture 2.5 and 360 Placement Beta

If you’re feeling adventurous and would like to get on the Capture 2.5 Beta, please see the following and sign up below.

This includes:
- improved performance with fast capture firmware
- improved alignment algorithms
- place 360 Views on the mini-map so that your users can navigate to/from them within Showcase 3.0 (not just in a Highlight Reel)

Important:

(1) This is a real beta - there will be bugs. Don’t use it for mission-critical work yet.

(2) Before you install Capture 2.5: backup the jobs on your iPad (via iTunes or using iMazing or iExplorer). Once Capture 2.5 migrates your existing job data, older versions of Capture will *not* be able to open them.

(3) Adjusting and placing 360 Views is not yet available in Workshop, so all adjustments have to happen via Capture. Not ideal, we know.

(4) Please send feedback or issues to capture-beta@matterport.com.

Experience the deadly line of terrifying navigation between consecutive 360 Placements leading to the street! (It might make sense for GSV, but not here)

Experience multiple floors of 360 placement mayhem! (360 Placements are better when linking to 360 Views of outside scans on the first level)

Experience when two 360 Placements probably should connect but are too far apart to know that they would like to be friends (outside). Had I known, I would have scanned one in the middle of the outside recreational area and NAILED IT.

Experience a conservative use case. Here's the Paw Wash, and here's outside. I had to wait 30 minutes for the USPS truck to move to get these.

Let's not get too creative (in this version). Could 360 Placements be a good way to show the patio, the hall and the inside of the laundry closet? Possibly, but it didn't really work out that way. Lesson: Keep it simple and just do the patio!!!

@Metroplex360 Hey Chris possibly an obvious question, but if I use another iPad for the beta the models the models on my main iPad should stay the same.

@leonherbert Correct.

In addition, when I installed Capture 2.5 Beta, it did not corrupt any of my spaces, it upgraded them.

When you update to Capture 2.5 Beta, you will be able to immediately use the 360 Placements to connect your 360 Views to your space.

I have posted the above samples with notes to help other MSPs know what to expect and how to ... dare I say it? How to SUCCEED FASTER!

These is exciting and what I would expect from a company like Matterport.

@Metroplex360 Chris when placing the 360's will they also publish to GSV?

@Helen Not yet, but I believe that that is the reason that they are implementing this in this manner rather than just giving us Mattertags for 360 Views (which I would prefer)
