Third Party Scans

The Multiset developer portal now supports integration with third-party scanning platforms, including Matterport, NavVis, and Leica, to streamline the creation of high-accuracy Visual Positioning Systems (VPS). Developers can utilize these industry-leading scanning tools to generate the required data for precise localization and AR experiences.

Input Requirements:

• File Format: All scans must be exported in .e57 format to ensure compatibility with the Multiset platform.

• Panoramas: Panoramic images must be included in all scans. These are essential for capturing comprehensive environmental data.

• Scan Density: The density of both the scans and the accompanying images should be high. Increased density ensures better visual mapping and localization accuracy.

Panoramas must be in cubic format where each pano is divided into 6 faces (Equirectangular format is not supportet yet)

Benefits of High-Density Scans:

• Enhanced environmental detail for improved VPS accuracy.

• Better alignment and anchoring of AR experiences in real-world environments.

• Seamless integration with Multiset’s tools for large-scale AR deployments.

By leveraging Matterport, NavVis, and Leica’s advanced capabilities, developers can create precise and persistent AR experiences.
