You're watching a special edition of the WGAN-TV Podcast for digital twin creators shaping the future of real estate today.We have a great "how to" episode for you!Our WGAN-TV Podcast guest is Tom Sparks, Founder and CEO of ScanYourSpace, a division of Sparks Media Group. To demo the Matterport Merge Tool, Tom uses scans from Oracle Park: the home of the San Francisco Giants.—Hey everybody, Tom Sparks with Sparks Media Group here.In this Matterport Merge Tool video, we’re going to attempt to merge a bunch of scans I did a couple of years ago at Oracle Park in San Francisco.I was hired to scan the stadium—or at least portions of it—for a client. At the time, I presented them with a bunch of individual tour links, but now I’m going to try to combine all of these together.We’ll start by selecting the tours we want to merge. I’m hoping there’s enough overlap data to make this work. I have seven of them selected, totaling 745 scan points.The limit is 2,000 scan points, so we’re well under. I’m not sure why I separated the tours originally, but I think it was because they didn’t want to scan all the spaces in between. Let’s try merging.The system is already doing a decent job. I can see an Oracle suite that’s not aligned correctly, so I’ll move that. The cove is in the wrong spot, so I’ll move that too. The club level looks good, as does the deck, although I accidentally moved it and had to undo.This is a pretty big scan, so I’m going to try auto align. It only lets me align two models at a time. I try a couple of combinations, but the auto align isn’t working well.I start referencing specific locations like the Alaska Airlines Loft and Oracle suite level to place things manually. The size of the project makes positioning tricky, and the auto align feature isn’t finding enough common data.I decided to proceed with merging anyway. Since I’m out of available spaces on my account, I archive the originals to free up space, hoping the merge will still work.Some of my other scans are still pending because I’ve hit my space limit. If this merge works, I’ll add more models to create one big tour.The merged tour comes back with 745 scan points, and it looks good overall. There are a few gaps because I couldn’t scan certain parts of the field due to construction or because the client didn’t need them.I start adding more tours, like the promenade patio and dugout box, aligning them manually when needed.The auto align works sometimes but fails other times, requiring fine-tuning. I continue with the Legends Club, Candlestick Club, and other spaces, snapping them into place when possible.My approach is to merge in stages—adding a few tours at a time, archiving them once merged, and repeating the process. I add Scoreboard Plaza and Suite 60, aligning them carefully. Once aligned, I merge the models and archive the originals.Within 24 hours, the new merge is ready with 804 scan points.The system shows the most recent three tours used for the merge but doesn’t list all previous ones, which is fine. Matterport has a new logo that reminds me of a recycling symbol, though I’m not sure how I feel about it.Looking at the completed model, I still wish I’d been able to scan a few missing areas.The stadium had a hard stop time, and the client didn’t require those spaces. At one point, the field crew asked me to leave because they hadn’t been notified I’d be scanning that day.Despite these limitations, the merged tour covers a huge area. It wasn’t for marketing, so I appear in several shots—sometimes intentionally, sometimes not—like a game of “Where’s Waldo.” Matterport even blurred one shot where my face was visible.In this video, I’ve shown how I merged the majority of my scans from Oracle Park into one massive tour.—Thanks Tom.Got follow-up questions for Tom?Go to www.SparksMediaGroup.com or www.ScanYourSpace.com or post your questions to the We Get Around Network Forum at: www.WeGetAroundNetworkForum.comAlso, subscribe to the Sparks Media Group YouTube Channel: @SparksMediaGroupFor WGAN-TV Podcast episodes, look for WGAN-TV in your favorite podcast app or go to: www.WGAN-TV.comThank you for watching this episode of the WGAN-TV Podcast.

In this WGAN-TV Podcast, guest host Tom Sparks, Founder and CEO of Scan Your Space (a Division of Sparks Media Group), field-tests the Giraffe360 GO Camera in a real-world warehouse environment — walking through the scanning process, testing still photos, and reviewing the final deliverables.Tom captures multiple scan points inside a large warehouse on Mare Island, California, using the Giraffe360 GO Camera. Scans take around 58 seconds each, and the camera’s SLAM-like behavior allows it to record measurement data while being carried — enabling floor plan generation with minimal scan points. Tom uploads the project to the cloud later that day and receives the completed 3D tour, floor plan, and still photo by the following morning.---The Giraffe360 GO Camera is designed for real estate agents who want an easy-to-use, all-in-one camera for creating professional-looking property tours without needing extra devices. In contrast, the Giraffe PRO Camera is built with the advanced features and control that real estate photographers expect — making it ideal for high-volume professionals seeking refined results and maximum image quality.---Tom's final verdict? The Giraffe360 GO delivers a fast, user-friendly workflow without needing a tablet or phone. He finds the 12MP still photo useable, the ANSI 765–compliant floor plan impressive, and the 3D tour polished. However, he suggests slower transitions and Ken Burns-style effects in the auto-generated video for better viewer experience.WGAN Special Offer:==========================================================================Two Giraffe360 Special Offers for WGAN CommunitySpecial Offer 1 - Giraffe360 Pro Camera (for real estate photographers):✓ Get early access to the new Giraffe PRO Camera - WGAN exclusive 60-day trial offer – just $123 per month - Be among the first to try the all-new Giraffe PRO Camera as it officially launches.

In this WGAN-TV Podcast, Guest Host Tom Sparks, Founder and CEO of Scan Your Space (a Division of Sparks Media Group), showcases a real-world head-to-head comparison: the Fotello AI-powered photo editing platform versus a traditional human editor — with insights from REALTOR® and professional photographer Bruno Versaci.Tom uploads 195 bracketed images to Fotello, enables preferences like sky replacement and auto perspective correction, and receives a full gallery of edits within minutes — including a quick preview in just 4 minutes. Bruno evaluates the results and gives Fotello an A for quality, noting the crispness, vibrant tones, and impressive window pulls.Key takeaways from the episode:✓ Speed + Quality: the Fotello edits are agent-ready fast — making urgent listings possible in under 30 minutes.✓ Customization Options: Post-edit controls inside Fotello allow fine-tuning like contrast, exposure, and image style presets (e.g., Airy, Natural, Deep).✓ Human vs AI quirks: Bruno points out subtle issues like inconsistent wall color rendering (white versus peach) and missed cable removal — but he also notes that the Fotello revision request feature makes corrections easy.✓ AI tools evolving fast: New features include adding realistic fireplace flames and screen images to blank TVs — previously requiring Photoshop.✓ Cost efficiency: For high-volume shooters, Fotello can cut editing expenses by hundreds per month — and Fotello will price match your current editor.Bruno emphasizes that while he sometimes uses Photoshop for fine details (like removing cords or furniture imprints), Fotello saves time and delivers impressive results — especially for agents and photographers with tight deadlines.Catch all WGAN-TV Podcast episodes on your favorite podcast app or visit: www.WGAN-TV.com

WGAN-TV: Matterport Pro3 Camera-Understanding the Three T-Mount AdaptersSummary for Matterport Service Providers Using a Pro3 CameraIn this episode of the WGAN-TV Podcast, Matterport Pro3 expert Mike Vorce of MatterFix.io breaks down the key differences among the three known versions of the Matterport Pro3 T-Mount tripod adapters. He identifies two official versions—both with stainless steel pins—with the latest version distinguished by a flat section near the clasp.These are considered safe for regular use. However, Mike issues a strong warning about a third, unofficial version featuring a brass pin and internal screw prone to failure. This version, believed to be a beta unit that escaped destruction and is now circulating via sites like eBay, can jam inside the camera and potentially damage the mount or camera internals.Mike also provides practical guidance on identifying T-Mount issues in the field, including what to do if your mount is stuck or you encounter an “unstable” error during scanning. He explains how to assess mount tension, alignment, and grab-arm function, and even offers a basic adjustment tutorial using a T15 Torx tool. Importantly, he emphasizes proper seating of the mount to avoid scan errors or hardware damage. If problems persist, Mike recommends swapping out the T-Mount or tripod to isolate the issue—or reaching out to MatterFix.io for expert repair.For techs using or buying secondhand gear, this video is a must-watch to avoid costly downtime caused by a defective tripod adapter.
