We have been in the shoes of a service provider by ourselves. Now we're passing our service business in NYC to independent third-party service providers.

We want to empower service providers to avoid a race to the bottom with squeezing margins by providing you more differentiation and control over data and viewing experience. Our unlimited pricing plan and such features as white labeling, branding and self-hosting should allow you to make 3D tours a standard part of your growing business.

While we scale our production and iterate on product improvement based on early adopters feedback, we will be offering our solution in limited quantities. Please drop us a line at info@geocv.com or simply fill in "Contact Us" form on our website to join the waitlist. Our website is legacy and will be updated with more information about GeoCV solution.

The whole GeoCV team and I personally are very excited and look forward to your GeoCV 3D tours and feedback. I want to sincerely thank you for your patience and continuous support. Let's join forces to capture the world in 3D, one space at a time!

We have 2 options:
1. SD - 6434 x 3217
2. HD - 12868 x 6434

The majority of GeoCV 3D tours you've seen are in SD resolution. So if you liked them, you'll like HD even better. HD resolution allows extraction of print quality still photos. It also allows zoom in 3D tours.

I'd stress that one should differentiate between formal megapixels used for marketing and actual level of detail and crispiness. The latter depends a lot on software, both during processing and visualization.

You recieve a whole GeoCV scanning kit including:
- Samsung Galaxy S8 smartphone
- Occipital Structure 3D sensor attachment
- Proprietary rotator
- Carrying case
- Batteries, chargers, cables
- Arca-Swiss quick-release clamp

The only thing you'll need on top of that is a regular tripod, which might not be heavy duty since the camera weighs only 3 lb.

Here is how it looks now:

The litigation process has started and could take like a couple of years. In parallel we're in negotiations to resolve the litigation.

Currently we provide the whole kit including pre-calibrated smartphone and sensor. Support for customers' phones would be available later this year, but not in short-term.

But you're free to use the provided the smartphone outside of the scanner kit as a regular phone. It could be easily plugged in and out.

Two questions
1. Some time ago I signed up for the beta program. When can I expect your email with further details?
2. Can you share an example of the GeoCV’s performance in outside sunligh situations?

Looking forward to testing GeoCV.

Sorry for the delay and thank you for your patience. We've been a bit overwhelmed, but should send the follow-ups next week.

Sunlight is a problem for us now since Occipital Structure 3D sensor, which we use to get geometrical information, works in infrared light and thus doesn't perform well outdoors. If you want to capture 3D information shooting either in the shade, or closer to sunset, is the best option. Alternatively you can shoot outdoor panoramas at any lighting conditions and include them as viewpoints, i.e. standalone panoramas, not linked to the 3D scan. The latter approach could be also used to link 360 images of amenities, roof decks, etc. to the 3D tour.

Here is an example comprising both approaches:

Great work Anton! I've been following your company's work for some time now. I really like GeoCv's 3D viewer UI, very clean and modern interface, easy to read, as well as the possibility to have labeling in floorview mode.

I am also very excited about the possibilities with exterior drone captures combined with interior 3D navigation to create cohesive inmersive experiences. As I've seen in the Halstead Real Estate project some time ago, very cool stuff.

I understand that currently GeoCV's solution is using SG8 as it comes with custom calibration and settings you mentioned previously on this thread to process the tour properly. But in the future I could see that if other cameras were supported, GeoCV users could potentially shoot higher dynamic range photographic devices that allow us to capture higher bitdepth information to get better range to do color operations on images in post. Not sure if the panos are currently available in Jpeg only?.

Once again, very excited with this news, I already sign up for the beta, hoping to get more details
soon. Looking forward to try GeoCV solution.

Regards,

-Manuel

Yes, we'll support more capturing devices in the future. But even now we capture 7 exposures, so it covers a wide dynamic range. We provide panoramas in JPG, both the end processed ones and if required all exposures separately if you'd like to custom edit them, e.g. for better windows, highlights and shadows.

manuqc private msg quote post Address this user
Thanks for the answer Anton,

Good to know you guys will plan to support more devices in the future.
7 exposures seems ok, (and understand the current 360 jpg will be fine for most people) but always preferable to have high range when possible prior assembling hdr (like in a .cr2 to ptgui 360 workflow) or to get a higher bitdepth 360 pano output to play instead of jpeg (ex: .exr, .hdr, 16 bit tiff) to do proper tone mapping and color balancing w/macbeth or similar.

Once again props for the work on the 3D tour viewer hoping to keep seeing more cool ideas coming from your team.

Keen to learn more about GeoCv's solution, waiting for the answer on the beta invite still.

cheers,


-Manuel

I have already applied and received the pricing but have a couple questions for Anton about some functionality.

1) Will the beta version include integration of exterior 3D and 360° visuals captured with a drone? If so, are there additional costs involved?

2) Can you give examples of an exported 360 view? Will you also be able to export still images? Can you provide an example?

Thanks,

Josh

Incorporation of exterior 3D scans and aerial 360 panoramas captured with a drone is our premium feature, which is not yet included into subscription and has project-base pricing in the range of several hundreds US dollars per tour. We do hope to automate it at some point to exclude extensive involvement of our post-production team, so it could be included into subscription or at least become more affordable. And the feedback from actual customers using it more and more would facilitate this. According to Inman such GeoCV 3D tours "blow minds", so it's worth the effort and investment at least for selected properties.

It works as follows:
- You need a regular drone with a good enough camera (for example, we used Phantom 4 Pro V2.0).
- Flight automation software such as DroneDeploy is recommended. You should be also able to fly manually.
- We provide you guidelines for shooting (see brief description below). You shoot and send us the images.
- We use photogrammetric software to stitch them into 3D scan and optionally align 360 images to the 3D scan.
- We align the exterior 3D scan with the interior 3D scan, and import all the content into GeoCV 3D tour.
- The whole process might take several days.

Here is the brief description of guidelines for shooting:
- It includes automated regular grid trajectory for oblique and nadir shots, which could be automated via DroneDeploy software. This allows you to capture the main content for the house and its surroundings. We also recommend to additionally manually fly around the house in a few circles at multiple altitudes to provide better coverage, quality and level of detail. If flying at low altitudes is prohibitive, you might need to walk around the house with the drone in your hands.
- For any trajectory, consequent images should have large, e.g. 80%, overlap. If possible, the whole house or its larger portions should be visible in the frame, unless these are the images for surroundings. Different flight sessions should have a large enough overlap in trajectory or coverage, e.g. they should start capturing from the approximately the same point.
- You can optionally capture aerial 360 images, which we could integrate into GeoCV 3D tour both aligned to the exterior 3D scan and as highlights. You should use third-party software to capture and automatically stitch these images. We require both the stitched images and source frames for each panorama.
- While shooting with a drone for photogrammetry is not that hard, it does require some skills and experience, so please be prepared for some trial and error learning curve. At least in the beginning until you master the skill, it might be a time consuming process, e.g. could take 2 hours, so it's recommended to have a few extra batteries fully charged before the shoot.

Yes and yes. We'll prepare and publish some samples of all exported deliverables including floor plans, 3D model, 360 panoramas and still photos. We're currently upgrading our app to shoot in HD, i.e. 4x higher resolution than you currently see in our 3D tours now, so we probably release these samples after such an upgrade.

@AntonYakubenko, many confrontations on the rollout....

I must mention that I have been waiting for this very badly for year plus. MP is/was? monopoly in the market - ruling with it’s own terms.

Most exciting propositions from geocv for me are,
1. Possibility of offline showcase - I don’t mind if you make it like a software player with license renewal. You still make your money recurring basis.
2. Hosting on own server
3. High res images for both tour and download
4. Mirror feature function live effect - you see the actual model being presented


Couple questions to begin with,
1. What is the vertical fov? looks like a lot is compromised here
(More than 40 deg?) - should this vary with different cam/phone?
2. I have filled in the form for pricing details (no acknowledgment and no response for it yet)
3. Any thought/possibility of post processing the content locally? - for instance where confidentiality is the priority where we are literally not allowed to take out the data from premises. Could work like a software with license key.
4. Post processing or processing of blk360? Or other Pro grade laser scanners
5. Why not get away with “powered by geoCV” once in the scene. The UI is so neat but for this line - I understand you have the white label option but still.
6. View options - as in typical CAD environment I very much miss this feature. It is so convenient to have standard views to choose from. Just the top and orbit are not handy.


Best wishes and I sincerely wish that the legal course will be in favor and we all benefit equally.
