Matterport has introduced the all-new Matterport Pro3 camera along with major updates to its digital twin cloud platform. The Pro3 is equipped with 3D capture technology and can be used indoors or outdoors.
“Today marks a pivotal breakthrough in 3D technology with the introduction of the most powerful products Matterport has ever created," said RJ Pittman, chairman and chief executive officer, Matterport.
"Our new Pro3 camera and cloud platform create some of the world's most accurate, immersive and stunning digital twins. The opportunity has never been greater for companies to embrace the power of Matterport digital twins to transform their business."
The new Pro3 camera and cloud platform were built for the demands of enterprises in the construction industry. These solutions enable customers to create immersive digital twins. Customers across sectors – factories, retailers, hotels and airlines – report digital twins have reduced project times by 30% and cut travel expenses by up to 50% through such solutions.
Matterport Digital Twin Platform
Matterport has updated the cloud software platform that creates, publishes and manages digital twins of buildings and spaces of any size or shape. All of these new capabilities integrate so customers can create immersive environments for their employees, customers and partners to collaborate and explore.
- Support workflows from a single digital twin with a new workgroup collaboration framework called Views, to enable groups and large organizations to create separate, permissions-based workflows to manage different tasks with different teams such as: virtual inspections, remote training, space planning, personalized virtual tours and more.
- Support customer engagement, productivity and sales conversions with all-new Guided Tours and Tags for visitor experience. Now marketing and sales teams can create directed virtual tours of any commercial or residential space tailored to the interests of their visitors. Operations teams can create guided virtual training courses for remote workers.
- Matterport Capture Services is now supercharged with the new Pro3 camera to get professional digital twins from an on-demand capture technician in major cities around the world. Capture Services for Enterprise can now digitize a single space to a portfolio of thousands of buildings, indoors and out.
- Take the entire Matterport platform wherever you go with a fully enabled mobile solution that brings together capture, customization, view, edit, publish and restore capabilities to digital twins with the new Matterport app for iOS and Android devices.
Matterport Pro3 Camera
The Matterport Pro3 Camera is equipped with a combination of sensors and creates images, both indoors and outdoors. With a custom 20-megapixel sensor and 12-element lens covering an ultra-wide angle, the Pro3 camera produces detailed digital twins. Breakthroughs in the high-precision LiDAR sensor enable the capture of millions of measurements in various conditions, from dim light to direct sunlight, up to a range of 100 meters at less than 20 seconds per sweep.
Where interactive mesh previously had a 50k polygon limit, it is now unlimited with the Pro3 camera and the mesh for large spaces can exceed one million polygons. New digital twins are now streamed on demand as the user moves through a space, available on mobile and web platforms for all users.
Matterport’s Cortex AI engine is upgraded to capture 5x higher range, enabling customers to transform their interior and exterior spaces, even when encountering complex foliage, lighting and reflective surfaces.
“The Pro3 camera reflects years of advanced R&D and listening closely to our customers. The result is a breakthrough in 3D capture technology,” said Lou Marzano, vice president of research and development and manufacturing.
“The demands of the digital-first industry push our product standards to new levels, making precision, range, and mobility critical to our customers’ success. We put all of this together into a portable device that achieves a new threshold for price-to-performance of commercial LiDAR capture. Some of our largest enterprise customers have already put Pro3 to the test – capturing large outdoor venues from stadiums to campuses with speed and accuracy never before seen. Like the Pro1 and Pro2 that came before it, the Pro3 camera is in a class by itself and I am so proud of the team behind yet another industry first.”
