Hi folks,

Prasad Dixit posted a very interesting thread on the DataCAD forum:

The program is called MatterPort, and it models the interior of a building from photos, and places them in relative 3D space.?? Here's a case study that goes over one firm's process:

The video shows that they only had to take overall dimensions, and they scaled the MatterPort file to match, and then traced it is CAD. They don't use the cloud of points, really. But still, very interesting leap in technology and method. MatterPort apparently stacked the plans correctly, and "found" several unexpected features in the building.
