| @judysmithre It's a great question for Matterport: how to optimize load time, if that's possible. In the mean time: 1. the larger the 3D model, the longer to load (For example, a 200 scan model will take longer to load than a 100 scan model) 2. faster processing -- iPad Air versus iPad -- will load faster 3. We manage expectations: "Takes about 10 seconds to load" We include this (and more) text within the embed code that we provide clients. If you click here and scroll down, you'll all the caption text that we include with our Matterport 3D Showcase. (I shot this 3D Showcase yesterday and delivered to our client this morning.) Best, Dan |

| @judysmithre I think they are starting to get really popular but still have same basic hosting package from AWS. They need to have a big package that is overkill for traffic they are getting because they are not going to get less popular. This effects all of us and I have noticed load times slow significantly and I think it is on there end and not ours. ANyone else notice this is or is it a problem on our end? | ||

| New Auto-Play feature should be an enabled button within 3D Workshop. See how sweet @rpetersn did this integration [within a few hours of the Matterport announcement  ] |

| Anybody know why the starting location of the tour can't be the floor plan view? | ||

| Isn't the doll house and floor plan view the best parts of the whole thing? Without them you just have a low res walk through that an average camera could beat | ||

| On Tuesday, 12 May 2015, I sent the following 3D Workshop "wish list" suggestions to Matterport. Please continue to make 3D Workshop "wish list" suggestions in this thread. I will continue to forward on to Matterport. Thanks, Dan ---- High Priority / Minor Resources 1. Automatically calculate square footage for client billing (nearly all pros charge by sf) 2. Automatically calculate sf by room and by floor and total (for real estate agents) 3. To enable sf measurement by photographer, add polygon trim tool per floor. Then auto-generate screen captures per floor – with just this polygon – for invoice attachments. 4. Option to switch to metric units in the measuring tool In Unity, hide the menu so that you can see what the screen will capture (photographers care) 5. Add “Export All” button for snapshots 6. Enable option to set the “Splash Screen” different that the “Fly-in Point” 7. Slower panning to be used with Quicktime screen capture 8. Use the identical scan numbers in the Capture mini-map as in 3D workshop scan view. This will help with which scans to disable 9. Enable Collaborator to use the same email address as their account 10. Enable custom short-link creation. Shorter. Memorable. Tracking. 11. Place the “3D Showcase” blue bar above the name. If you have a long name, user may not see 12. In lieu of “3D Showcase” please use a universal symbol for play button 13. responsive design embed code High Priority / High Resources 1. Add usage statistics like YouTube and StarCounter (e.g. number of views, map of where views originate, likes, time spent) 2. Annotation [Link(s), video, audio, photo, text, social (FB, Twitter)] 3. Annotation – measurements created in Workshop viewable within 3D Showcase view 4. Annotation global (for example, audio plays in the background telling you about this house or floor) 5. Annotation – enable labeling floor names, rooms 6. Be able to set the starting PoV on every scan (so that you avoid staring at blank walls) 7. Option to change white balance in post (office lighting, house lighting, daylight) 8. Disable scan in dollhouse view, but viewable in WalkAround 9. Build in styling (CSS) to make embedding models easier on responsive design websites 10. Generate a video for YouTube/Vimeo (automatic and pro - control - version) 11. “Blur” tool either manually or automatic to blur faces of people Add field: geo-tag (automatic) with write-over option (include in API) 12. Add field: category (include in API) 13. Option to add a photo for the “splash screen” (for example, front, exterior view of the house) 14. Option to swap-out 3D Showcase models without the unique identifier number changing 15. Within Unity, enable higher resolution snapshots Low Priority / Minor Resources 1. Offer sizes for screen captures 2. Offer different file formats for screen captures 3. Make it clear that Snapshot took a photo (audio or visual feedback) 4. When downloading the “snapshots” use the date/number file name rather than “Model Screenshot” - even better, also add the title of the 3D showcase to the “snapshot” file name (for SEO). 5. Enable the photographer to set the file format name globally, including [Date] 6. In measure, sequentially number the measurements. Add scroll bar. 7. In annotate, sequentially number the annotations. Add scroll bar. 8. In scans view, add scroll bar 9. Add batch “Move to Folder” (to move more than one 3D Showcase into the same folder) 10. Add feature back in: option to receive email notice that a model is uploading. 11. When using “Move Model” and you have a ton of models, it would be helpful if the “cancel” and “accept” buttons also appeared at the top. 12. Option to change the scan ring color. (The white rings are hard to view on light/white floors.) 13. In Unity-->Snapshot | Why is there a Capture option rather than just Snapshot to the take the photo? More options coming in Snapshot? 14. New Auto-Play feature should be an enabled button within 3D Workshop Low Priority / High Resources 1. Panoramic image editing like color correct, etc. 2. Enable the user to select the language and translate on the fly (written in English; viewer select language 3. Enable 3D Showcases to be copied to another Matterport account 4. Enable .obj import (e.g. enhanced model) Object file (.obj) compile the mesh and texture data in a structured way 5. Predictive Mesh Fill Feature for .obj - for example, the chair blocks the sofa, wall and chair so presently the mesh view is missing data behind the chair. So, proactively make the mesh better than the camera actually captured. 6. In Unity, if you have two scans nearly on top of each other, it can be difficult to select the scan(s) you want to deactivate. 7. Thumbnails in 3D Workshop need to be full frame 8. In Unity-->Scans | The last scan is hidden under xxx/xxx scans: hard to disable the last scan. 9. In Unity -->Snapshot-->Capture | When using Capture, stay in Gallery view: not reverting back to Scan view. For example, when I Capture 25 images, it adds 25 steps to revert back to Gallery view. --- |

| Nice list Dan. It's time that matterport comes up with some high impact changes. They should also focus on applications of matterport in other sectors apart from real estate. The matterport site itself gave me the idea of applications in hospitality. But the floor plan view and the dollhouse view are not useful for the clients in hospitality. It is only useful for real estate. Also I strongly feel that if an option is available to disable these features it can surely improve the loading speeds. Hope you guys agree with me. |

| Hi Dan was this list ever addressed by MP and recapped for the MUG? I would love to know if they are pushing forward on any of these, especially the audio feature which I think narration would be a very cool upgrade. |

| Dan, I have not see it after looking thru all the wish list, but was wondering if any body asked to have the ability to run two cameras simultaneously and two Ipads on the same job to speed up job time. The cameras have independent IP addresses so there would be no conflict. The ability to use one or two of the same scans point as a start point on two Ipads then separate the work. This would allow two workers on one job to speed up the ability to do the work. Matterport then could merge the two files together. Since each file could have two of the same scans merging would be very simple. But on large jobs it could cut down the at scene time greatly. We have found that while one is taking photos there is some down time. From a software point this would be no different than merging a new scan into an already existing job. The software has the capability it just needs an avenue to do it. This is done regularly on 3D scanning. Ron |

| @ron0987 Ron, great idea. Next time I summarize "wish lists" for Matterport, I will add this to the list. I've been holding off with new "wish list" ideas and suggestions until Showcase 2.0 is released. Dan |

| I don't know how disruptive this would be to the standards that Matterport set - but I'd love the Field of View to be a bit wider... sure, it might exaggerate things a bit - but I feel that the tours make the rooms look smaller -- psychologically. Adding a bit of distortion to make things look wider would be a good thing. | ||

| Actually you can change the Field of View depending on the ratio you set. The default is 853x480 but if you change it to 853x150 you get this: http://renderingspace.com/field-of-view-demo |

| RenderingSpace: Thank you so much! That makes a HUGE difference. How would you feel if the full screen mode option letterboxed the tours so that it could [sort of] retain the FOV? I love what you guys are doing in the northwest. You have a fantastic site presentation! | ||

| How about a "Features" list for certain items in a house in the Showcase, with the ability to add links. Imagine being able to click on an item in a house and link to a detail page, or shopping cart! This would be amazing for product companies. This is what "product placement" was supposed to be. We might even be able to charge companies (alarm companies, moving companies, painting companies, etc) for the placement and provide the service at a reduced cost to our core clients. |

| My understanding is that this feature is indeed going be out in the next rev under the guise of 'mattertags'. I could be, but hope I am not, wrong. Want to hear from anyone else on it. | ||

| @pheller @cdpmedia I write about Matterport Showcase 2.0 in this We Get Around blog post. The post includes a discussion of Matterport Mattertags ... Matterport Showcase 2.0 Rocks for 3D Photographers and Real Estate Agents Mattertags is a (coming soon) exciting new feature that opens up many integrated marketing opportunities, including those listed by @pheller.
