Hi All,

Have you successfully tested shooting a Matterport tour with an Insta360 One R?

While the Insta360 One R does not show up on the Matterport list of approved 360 cameras (above) as of today (27 July 2020), I could imagine that the Insta360 One R does work with Matterport.

I would to know!

Thanks,

Dan

I have both the OneX and the OneR and I can confirm that the OneR connects to the capture app, and is appropriately identified as the OneR rather than a mimicking X. I am going to assume based on the fact that it connected and was ready and waiting to scan that it's not only compatible but on some level supported within their code. This is with the Insta360 One R Split-Mod (the bifurcated lens version which we use in the Aerial rig they have for drone-less video recording)

I will test it tonight or tomorrow and confirm or deny my assumption in an update.

Very interesting - just a short update first. We were correct in assuming that the One R will in fact work with Capture, however "work" can be rather subjective. The R is definitely recognized immediately and actively pulled into Capture if there is an active WiFi peer connection enabled. The first scan even went swimmingly... and then the cookie crumbled. Just to get two consecutive and aligned scans I had to deal with 2 cases of unresponsive behavior, 4 app hard crashes, and a sprinkling of completed scans but very odd point cloud and mesh generation. This all reminded me of how some of these hardware companies work - DJI is very similar in that for whatever reason each product, whether an iterative release on the general hardware platform, or something completely new, are sometimes produced as if they were a standalone product and not a sibling. The most pronounced manifestation of this is the fact that there is not a single controller app between the OneX and the R. Similarly DJI now has at least 4 different versions of their flight controller app, which they just iterated again with the Air 2.

Based on what I just experienced I would definitely urge caution to anyone considering the purchase of a One R for the purpose of Matterport tour work. Since I am a total nerd, however, I am going to continue to play with it, and see just how broken it is. I will process a few scans between the R and X and post them once I have for anyone interested.

Thanks Dan for asking the question, it reminded me that I had on several occasions seen mine connected to my Capture it unintentionally, and I wanted to test it out.

Hi All,

"In an ongoing effort to open up its technology, Matterport's Capture app will now work with 3D camera maker Insta360's new ONE R line of devices," reports Inman.

"Popular camera manufacturer Insta360 and 3D media services provider Matterport have partnered to allow users of the ONE R camera to create immersive, 3D home tours, according to a press release," reports Inman.

"The partnership is currently being tested in Matterport’s Beta project, where users can find out about lingering use issues, success cases and updates on formal product partnership launches," reports Inman.

"The official launch of the Insta360 ONE R and Matterport union is aimed for October [2020]. The camera will connect to Matterport Capture via Apple’s iOS mobile platform. The companies are offering discounts on a camera package and two-month free app trial," reports Inman.
