By logging in to your Account, you can manage all your projects on site. Once finishing shooting, your project will be sent directly to our post-production team. You do not have to wait until you are home to process your images. 

Camera settings

Create your projects 

You can manage multiple projects inside the App. You can either choose an existing project or create a new one using the ''+'' icon and select which type of project to create

Capture Preview 

You can display the preview of the pano you are taking by pressing Preview.

Capture 

Place your camera in the room, hide, and press on the camera icon. The capture will start. Repeat the process for every shoot. For the following shoot, the app will automatically place the pano in the environment. 

If the system doesn't recognize the pano, you will see a pop-up window for the manual alignment. To be more efficient, you do not have to wait until the panorama is captured to place it in the scene. While the camera is in action, you can align the panorama manually directly on your device.  

Photographers will certainly gain more time using that tip.

• Manual alignment: you can press on your screen to place the pano where it belongs.

Rotating Image 

You can now rotate a panorama with the “rotate” button. It will add 15 degrees every time it’s pressed. 15 degrees = 24 clicks to make a full 360 rotation. 

Manage your Floors

When your floor is done, you can move it to the next one and create a New Floor. Press on the "+" sign and name it. 

Uploading Images Again After Processed 

For multiple photographers, a first photographer needs to upload his project to the tour. Once the immersive 3D tour is processed, the second photographer can upload their project to the tour. 

Create Notes

Enter the name of the room or the measurements directly inside your space.

Discard your pictures

Sometimes, your pictures will be too overexposed or underexposed. The deleted picture will be automatically removed from your camera.

You also have the option to keep the images on the camera or not.

Pictures Download 

When your project is finished, you can either create an archive or process your images directly to account. If you want to send your project directly to our post-production team, you will need to have enough credits in your Account. When ready, select the tour (that needs to be created before the upload), the type of project (residential or commercial), and order the Floorplan if needed.
