The iGUIDE Radix will be available in Beta on August 10th, 2021.“The launch of iGUIDE Radix is an exciting one because this is where technology can reshape an industry! We have designed Radix specifically for insurance and restoration professionals to capture and share comprehensive property data for use in estimating the cost of damages in a very cost-effective way,” says Michael Vervena, VP of Sales & Marketing at Planitar. “Within minutes, you can document a property loss, upload the data from your phone, and share the images and measurements instantly with your estimator. This is faster and easier than sketching by hand or using other technologies, especially when it comes to the majority of losses that are just several rooms - you speed up the process, reduce travel time, and increase efficiency.”Capturing the state of a property for insurance claims and restoration purposes can be expensive and time-consuming. Numerous site visits may be required to gather comprehensive data such as detailed measurements and photographs. With iGUIDE Radix, users can save time by capturing data quickly and cut costs by eliminating the need for multiple site visits. iGUIDE Radix also provides accurate measurements and the ability to access, download and share the complete set of data, which includes 3D tour and all assets for archiving.Source: Planitar (iGUIDE)---WGAN Forum Related Discussions✓ All WGAN Forum discussions tagged: iGUIDE Radix | iGUIDE | iGUIDE PLANIX | iGUIDE Stitch✓ WGAN Forum discussions tagged: Insurance | Restoration | Fire | Flood✓ iGUIDE PLANIX is the 3D Camera Kit Matterport Wished It Created✓ BIG NEWS!!

Hi All,
My guest for WGAN-TV iGUIDE PLANIX Camera Kit | Intro, Demo and FAQs is Chris White, Planitar (iGuide) Marketing Manager.This show aired live on WGAN-TV Live at 5 on Thursday, 18 March 2021.Topics Covered✓ iGUIDE Platform Overview (Highlights): including iGUIDE 3D Tour, iGUIDE, Floor Plans and photos✓ Introduction to the iGUIDE PLANIX Camera Kit✓ iGUIDE PLANIX Camera Kit Unboxing: What's Included✓ iGUIDE PLANIX Camera Kit: Demo✓ iGUIDE PLANIX Camera Kit: three configurations (What's Different?)✓ iGUIDE PLANIX Camera Kit: Pricing (Including Pre-Orders prior to 5 April 2021 shipping)✓ iGUIDE Pricing: Two Per 3D Tour Options (iGUIDE and Premium iGUIDE): no subscription✓ iGUIDE PLANIX Camera Kit: Features and Benefits✓ iGUIDE PLANIX Camera Kit versus iGUIDE IMS-5 Camera (DSLR included)✓ iGUIDE PLANIX Camera Kit: FAQs✓ And More!As I posted to the WGAN Forum on Tuesday, 2 March 2021:✓ iGUIDE PLANIX is the 3D Camera Kit Matterport Wished It Created (in Many Ways)If you are a real estate photographer researching Matterport 3D tours, iGUIDE 3D tours should be on your short list of other 3D/360 platforms – and other 3D/360 cameras – to consider.While Matterport will be valued at nearly $3 billion and receive $615 million in cash when Matterport is scheduled to go public by 30 June 2021, its much smaller, feisty competitor has created better camera kits and platform – in many ways.I asked Planitar Inc. (Planitar is the makers of iGUIDE) Co-Founder and CEO Alexander Likholyot (@Alex_iGuide) by email today (2 March 2021) what problems that the iGUIDE PLANIX Camera Kit - launched Monday (1 March 2021) solves versus the DSLR-based iGUIDE Camera Kit. Alex writes, "further capture speed increase, longer measurement range, greater ease of use and lower replacement cost as workhorses get worked to the ground sometimes. PLANIX leaves [busy, professional real estate photographers] more time to deliver more value with their other services while providing a great 3D tour with accurate floor plans."Known for the iGUIDE laser-sharp focus on residential real estate, iGUIDE "PLANIX opens lots of applications in commercial real estate, including insurance and large space scanning," writes Alex. "Everybody likes the look of it, which makes us happy. It is a 3D Space Technology : )."Here are my observations ...iGUIDE PLANIX is the 3D Camera Kit Matterport Wished It Created (in Many Ways)1. superior camera kits (iGUIDE PLANIX Camera in three configurations; and iGUIDE IMS-5 Camera)2. superior 3D virtual tour platform (iGUIDE Tour Examples | Matterport Tour Examples)3. superior 2D floor plans in the residential and commercial real estate space. (iGUIDE PLANIX Floor Plan Example | Matterport Floor Plan Example)iGUIDE PLANIX Camera Kit – announced Monday, 1 March 2021 – is the 3D Camera Kit (three configurations) that Matterport likely wished it created.iGUIDE PLANIX Camera Kit Versus Matterport Highlights1. LiDAR instead of structured light2. LiDAR “sees” up to about 130 feet versus about 50 feet for Matterport’s structured light3. LiDAR enables most residential listings to be shot in 15-20 minutes (faster workflow)4. LiDAR enables super-accurate 2D floor plans: .05% dimensional uncertainty versus Matterport5. $1,999 (pre-order pricing until 4 April 2021) instead of $2,995 (Matterport Pro2 Camera sale price)6. Option to control camera settings (versus no camera settings control)7. Leverages a publicly available 360 camera: Ricoh Theta Z1 (future compatibility)8. Enables 2D Floor Plans to be accurate9. Includes a custom hard case (versus no case with Matterport)10. In addition to iOS, already works with Android; Matterport in Android public beta11. Ricoh Theta Z1 Camera - in the iGUIDE PLANIX Camera Kit - can be used for other platforms and without an iGUIDE subscription: Matterport Pro2 Camera can not be used with any other platform without a Matterport Cloud Subscription (and then a cumbersome workflow, at best).Cost ConsciousPhotographers that already have a Ricoh Theta Z1 can order the iGUIDE PLANIX Core Kit for $1,299 (pre-order pricing through 4 April 2021).Measurement Accuracy MattersPhotographers that seek the ultimate in measurement accuracy within the 3D virtual tour view can order the iGUIDE PLANIX Pro Camera Kit for $2,499 (pre-order pricing through 4 April 2021) that includes Ricoh Theta Z1 lens calibration for up to 3 times better accuracy when measuring in the 3D space. (Floor plan measurements have the same level of accuracy for all iGUIDE PLANIX configurations.)Plus, the iGUIDE Platform beats Matterport on:1. Offering Per Tour Pricing (no subscription) versus Matterport Cloud subscription2. Ability to edit 360 images (e.g. remove the camera from a bathroom mirror; sky replacement)3. Offline hosting is an option with iGUIDE: not Matterport4. No confusion regarding who owns the copyright/digital assets: no derivative works by iGUIDE (as Matterport does)5. More intuitive user experience powered by an interactive 2D floor plan6. iGUIDE offers super-accurate 2D floor plans versus Matterport7. iGUIDE Floor plans available in 8 color-coded configurations (Matterport are B&W)8. iGUIDE does not complete with its Service Providers (as does Matterport Capture Services Program)9. Integration of Google Maps (versus no map integration by Matterport: need a 3rd Party Platform)10. An integration with Floorplanner for DIY enhanced 2D/3D floor plans and virtual staging.While real estate photographers may dismiss iGUIDE because it does not offer a 3D dollhouse view like Matterport – or a 3D walk-through experience like Matterport – the real question is: Is iGUIDE “good enough” to enable professional real estate photographers to compete with Matterport and to differentiate both the real estate agent and real estate photographer from their respective competitors? Spoiler Alert: The answer is likely heck-yes!For professional real estate photographers that have image resolution concerns about using a Ricoh Theta Z1 camera – considered the best in the under $1,000 360 camera price point – in the iGUIDE PLANIX Camera Kit, iGUIDE offers the iGuide IMS-5 Camera Kit which includes a DSLR camera.I could imagine that the addition of the iGUIDE PLANIX now opens the iGUIDE platform to real estate photographers that seek a faster and/or simplier workflow than the DSLR based iGUIDE IMS-5 Kit for real estate photographers that prefer a DSLR camera for shooting spherical panoramas.What are your thoughts?

How to pursue and how to pitch the benefits of Matterport scanning
Hi All,For Matterport Service Providers, documenting property within businesses and inside of homes of high net-worth individuals for insurance underwriting and risk engineering may be the next big opportunity.Matterport 3D models will make a huge difference in how insurance underwriting and risk management are done today. By providing underwriters with the ability to pull up, on demand, a Matterport 3D model of a given location, underwriters will be able to do their jobs faster and more effectively.Matterport Meets Insurance Underwriting and Risk Management are the topics for WGAN-TV Live at 5 (5 pm ET | -5 GMT) on Wednesday, 11 December 2019.My guests will be Matterport Director of Accounts Brandon A. Donatelli - and Matterport Account Managjer Rodrigo Abreu – whom will walk us through this topic.For context for this WGAN-TV show, imagine that you are an insurance company. A business owner seeks millions of dollars in property insurance within a very large space.Before Matterport, insurance companies had few options when assessing the risk: essentially sending someone out to inspect and document.With a Matterport “Digital Twin,” it becomes possible for a Risk Engineer to inspect a property remotely and without compromising quality and much more cost-effectively (time and traveling savings).A Matterport 3D model, which can be quickly and easily captured, gives insurance companies the upside of virtual on-site inspections with none of the drawbacks.Among the questions that I will ask Brandon are:✓ what is insurance underwriting and how does this work today?✓ what is risk management and how does this work today?✓ what are the problems - the pain points - for insurance underwriting and and risk management?✓ Can you give us an example of each and highlight the pain points?✓ How does a Matterport 3D model solve these problems?✓ How does a critical mass of Matterport Pros help?✓ How does a Matterport Service Provider get this kind of business?What questions do you have for our guest?Matterport will disrupt – in a good way – how properties are inspected and analyzed. Watch this show to help you figure-out opportunities for your Matterport Service Provider business.Best,Dan

How to use the Cupix SLAM App to streamline capturing 360º photos paired with a 360º 1-click camera
 
Hi All,Creating a Cupix 3D Tour will get even easier and faster with the soon-to-be-released Cupix SLAM app (iOS) to streamline capturing 360º photo spheres paired with these 360º 1-click cameras:✓ Ricoh Theta V✓ Insta360 One X (Cupix SLAM App integration in January 2018)✓ Panono (Cupix SLAM App integration in January 2018)✓ Mi Sphere✓ MADV MadventureThe Cupix SLAM App is current in beta.
