Giraffe360 Special Offer: full details and to order, visit www.WGAN.info/giraffe360-pro --- Giraffe360 hosts its third webinar in a powerful education series for real estate photographers transitioning into full-service media providers, as viewed in this WGAN-TV Podcast episode (above). Giraffe360 Chief Customer Officer Samy Jeffries and Lead Product Manager Ainars Klavins present a compelling case for using the new Giraffe PRO Camera to meet the growing demand for immersive media in real estate. Key Takeaways ✓ Shift in market demands: 82% of millennial buyers now expect immersive media—video, 3D, floor plans—but only 9% of agents provide them. Giraffe360 empowers photographers to close that gap. ✓ New business model: Giraffe360 positions real estate photographers as strategic partners—like interior designers—not just vendors. ✓ End-to-end solution: With the Giraffe PRO Camera and Giraffe360 Content Studio, creators can capture stills, floor plans, 3D tours, and cinematic + drone-style videos—all from one scan, one visit. ✓ Gaussian Splatting for real estate: Ainars introduces breakthrough photorealistic 3D modeling using Gaussian Splatting, enabling “virtual drone” and cinematic videos generated post-scan—no drone pilot, lighting crew, or insurance required. ✓ Deep dive into Content Studio: Fully AI-powered editing workflow includes HDR photo processing, object removal, blur control, sky replacement, and camera removal—plus multi-language support and customizable presets. ✓ New video formats: Giraffe360 now supports cinematic walkthroughs and virtual drone-style fly-throughs generated automatically. More formats and editable flight paths coming soon. ✓ Giraffe360 Photographer Partner Program: ZIP Code exclusivity, full support, and marketing kits make it easier than ever to monetize media bundles and stand out as a premium provider. Special Offer for WGAN Community Try the Giraffe PRO Camera for 60 days. ✓ $123/month (for two months) ✓ Scan up to 10 residential listings ✓ No long-term commitment ✓ Includes all add-ons and features For full details and to order, visit: www.WGAN.info/giraffe360-pro Topics covered – Giraffe360 market insights – How to upsell immersive media services – Detailed walkthrough of new video production capabilities – Gaussian Splatting explained – Rendering timelines and scan strategies – Customization, branding, and automation – ZIP Code exclusivity and lead routing – Upcoming features: virtual twilight, more video formats, and global rollout

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.

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.

WGAN-TV: Matterport Pro3 Camera-Understanding the Three T-Mount Adapters Summary for Matterport Service Providers Using a Pro3 Camera In 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. --- Transcript available in the We Get Around Network Forum www.WeGetAroundNetworkForum.com

Are you wondering how to: ✓ How many days did it take to create a Matterport digital twin of the 400,000 SQ FT Kobe Convention Center? ✓ What was the pricing strategy for such a super-large space? ✓ In addition to Matterport, what other platforms, cameras and software were used for the Kobe Convention Center? Stay tuned! On WGAN-TV Live at 5 at 5 pm ET on Wednesday, 18 December 2024, our guest is: ✓ Meidansha Inc. President Daniel Brown Our topic is: ✓ How to Create a Matterport Digital Twin of a 400,000 SQ FT Convention Center Daniel will guide us through the complexities of documenting the Kobe Convention Center — a project that involved four large buildings, requiring unique problem-solving, multiple technologies, and strategic planning. He'll demonstrate a deeper dive into the tour (than our previous WGAN-TV Live at 5 show), and share insights on the challenges and solutions involved in creating such a large-scale digital twin. Kobe Convention Center Tours by Meidansha Inc. President Daniel Brown 1. Example Tours by Meidansha Inc. President Daniel Brown 2. Kobe Convention Center (400,000 SQ FT) | Tour by https://virtualtour.productions/kobe_convention_center/kkc2024/index.htm 3. Kobe Convention Center is a complex of 4 Large Buildings (Here is one of the buildings.) https://3d.walkthroughs.online/show/?m=HDSJBxoVgvu 4. Kobe International Exhibition Hall 2 | Includes Scans from a Leica BLK360 G1 https://3d.walkthroughs.online/show/?m=V1Tz56PTino Some of the questions I will ask Daniel: 1. Project Origin: How did this project come about? ✓ How did you connect with the tourism board for this project? ✓ Did they approach you or did you reach out to them? ✓ How did you first understand the scale and scope of the project? 2. Quoting and Pricing: How did you approach pricing for such a large project? ✓ What was your pricing strategy for a project of this scale? ✓ Did you charge a fixed fee, bill by the day, charge by the SQ FT? ✓ How did you estimate the number of days or resources required for the project? 3. Understanding the Client's Needs: What were the use cases for the digital twin? ✓ How did the tourism board plan to use the digital twin of the Kobe Convention Center? ✓ Was the goal primarily marketing, or were there operational uses as well? ✓ Were there specific features they wanted to highlight in the tour? 4. Tools and Technology: What software and hardware were used to create the digital twin? ✓ Which cameras did you use? (e.g., Matterport Pro2, Leica BLK360, DSLR, 360 camera) ✓ What software platforms did you use? ✓ How did you decide which tools were best for the project's requirements? 5. Problem Solving: What challenges did you encounter with such a large space? ✓ What were the unique challenges with scanning a 400,000 square foot space? ✓ How did you manage large open spaces that may not have many visual reference points? ✓ Were there any lighting challenges in different parts of the convention center? ✓ How did you overcome GPS or connectivity issues while scanning? 6. Workflow and Execution: How did you organize the workflow for this large-scale project? ✓ How many scanning days did this project require? ✓ How did you ensure continuity when scanning different sections of the building over time? ✓ What was your approach for balancing speed and quality in such a large project? 7. Managing Multiple Technologies: How did you integrate various tools and platforms? ✓ How did you manage the use of multiple platforms (Matterport, 3DVista, MPEmbed, Google Earth)? ✓ Did you use different tools for different sections of the building? ✓ How did you maintain consistency between different types of media (3D scans, photos, 360 panoramas)? 8. Deliverables: What was delivered to the client and in what format? ✓ What were the final deliverables for the project? ✓ How did you package the tour for easy use by the client? ✓ Did you provide training or support on how to use and share the digital twin? 9. Client Feedback and Results: What was the client's response to the final product? ✓ How did the client react to the completed tour? ✓ Were there any follow-up requests or additional features they wanted? ✓ How has the tourism board been using the digital twin since its delivery? 10. Lessons Learned: What would you do differently if you could start the project again? ✓ Were there any surprises during the project that you didn't anticipate? ✓ Looking back, is there anything you would change about how you approached the project? ✓ What advice would you give to someone taking on a project of this scale for the first time? Why This Matters for Real Estate Photographers For real estate photographers used to documenting homes of 3,500 square feet, tackling a 400,000 square foot project introduces entirely new challenges and complexities. From dealing with large open spaces to managing multiple technologies, Daniel's experience can offer invaluable lessons for anyone looking to expand their business into larger commercial projects.

www.SIMLABinc.com | www.SIM-STAGES.com  -- Are you thinking about adding STAGES by SIMLAB to your Matterport digital twins? -- Do you have a client in the AEC space that uses Matterport that wants to add STAGES? -- Would you like a deep-dive onboarding demo of Matterport + STAGES by SIMLAB? Stay tuned! On WGAN-TV Live at 5 (special time: 11 am ET and 5 pm in Poland) on Wednesday, 18 September 2024 my guest will be SIMLAB STAGES Product Owner Robert Czarlewski. Topic WGAN-TV | How to Get Started with SIMLAB STAGES: a Deep-Dive Onboarding Training Demo Highlights We will assume that you are already a pro with Matterport and that you have watched previous WGAN-TV Live at 5 shows about SIMLAB STAGES (www.WGAN.info/SIMLABonWGAN). Robert will show us examples of Matterport digital twin powered by SIMLAB STAGES and then show us the backend of how these SIMLAB STAGES features are added to a Matterport digital twin. Robert will show us 7 Basic Features of SIMLAB STAGES: ✓ Feature 1: Creating an Organization "The first step when using Stages is to create an organization. The organization serves as your workspace, where all your projects are stored, and licenses are tied to the organization. Therefore, it's a crucial part of the environment setup." ✓ Feature 2: Creating a Project "After setting up the organization, the next step is creating a project. Each project can include various components, such as scans, notes, and other materials. I'll show you how to create a new project step by step." ✓ Feature 3: Adding Components (Matterport Scans) to a Project "Once the project is created, the next step is adding components, such as scans. This is a fundamental part of building a project in Stages, so it's essential to know how to do it correctly." ✓ Feature 4: Matterport Scan Synchronization "Scan synchronization is a critical process. In this step, it's important to define the synchronization points in locations that are as far apart as possible and, if possible, at different heights. The first scan should be manually marked as synchronized, creating what we call a 'reference scan.' You can verify the synchronization quality using the split screen tool, and if necessary, remove and repeat the synchronization." ✓ Feature 5: Adding Notes "You can add notes to each project, which allows for better documentation and team collaboration. Now, I'll show you how to do that." ✓ Feature 6: Attaching Materials to Notes "You can enhance your notes by attaching additional materials, such as images or files. This is a very useful feature that provides more information in your notes." ✓ Feature 7: Sharing Projects "Lastly, we'll cover how to share projects. You can invite other users to collaborate, assign them roles, and manage access. I'll show you how to send invitations and manage roles within the project." Robert will also show additional features and tips and tricks: ✓ Feature 8: Generating Reports "In Stages, you can generate detailed reports from each project. It's a quick and easy way to present the results of your work." ✓ Feature 9: Generating Public Links "If you need to share a project with external stakeholders, you can generate a public link. This is especially useful when you need to quickly share your project." ✓ Feature 10: System Preferences "Lastly, I'll show you how to customize the system preferences. You can change the appearance of the timeline, switch between light and dark themes, adjust the units of measurement, and modify the date format."

Hi, I'm the digital twin of Dan Smigrod, the Founder of the We Get Around Network Forum. I have the privilege of delivering a message that's close to Dan's heart on a very special occasion. It's hard to believe that it's been 10 years since the first post was made in the We Get Around Network Forum. On August 19, 2014, we began this journey with a simple idea: to create a space where we could all share knowledge, help each other grow, and shape the future of real estate together. Today, with 101,000 posts among 18,000 topics, it's clear that the WGAN community has not only fulfilled that vision but has surpassed every expectation. To our 15,000 members and guests who visit the WGAN Forum each month: You are the heart of this community. Your contributions, your willingness to help one another, and your shared passion have built the world's largest knowledge base of its kind. It's your giving and getting of help that have made the WGAN Forum the best PropTech community for Matterport and related digital twin creators and providers. To our marketing partners: Your support has been instrumental in allowing this platform to remain free for nearly everyone. By embracing our community, you've enabled us to continue growing, innovating, and making a real impact. We're incredibly grateful for your ongoing partnership. As we look to the future, I want to acknowledge the role of AI in our continued evolution. We see the potential of AI to transform how we create, share, and experience digital twins. The WGAN community will continue to explore and push the boundaries of what's possible. In closing, I want to say this: you matter. These two words have guided our community from the very beginning, and they will continue to do so as we move forward. And, while it is our 10th birthday, We Get Around Network Forum Members get the gifts. To receive an all access pass to the WGAN-TV Training Academy for 12 months, go to: www.WGAN.info/birthday by December 31, 2024. Use coupon code: birthday. No credit card necessary.
