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 in the We Get Around Network Forum: www.WeGetAroundNetworkForum.com…

Hi there, I am the digital twin of Dan Smigrod, Founder and Managing Editor of the We Get Around Network Forum and host of WGAN-TV Podcast. Procore plays a pivotal role in enhancing the functionality of Matterport digital twins -- integrated with SIMLAB STAGES -- by transforming construction coordination and communication with punch list items, for example, mapped exactly where they exist in a digital twin. Let's dive into one of the biggest challenges in construction management—coordination. Whether it's tracking issues or just keeping everyone on the same page, it's a lot. Now, imagine this: you've got your Procore data—Punch Items, RFIs, project documents — all embedded right in either a Matterport or a NavVis digital twin. That's exactly what SIMLAB STAGES does. Instead of jumping between platforms and scrolling through endless lists, you're seeing these issues in real time, within the actual space they affect. For instance, let's say there's a Punch Item tied to a specific room in a building. With SIMLAB STAGES, that item isn't just a line in a spreadsheet. It's mapped to its precise location, visually, in the Matterport (or NavVis) model. You click. You see instantly. You know what's going on without guessing or piecing it together manually. This kind of spatial understanding—it's huge. It takes something that could be abstract or buried in documents and makes it clear, tangible. And that's not all. Procore documents—images, reports, supporting files — are pulled straight into SIMLAB STAGES. No switching apps. No downloading or loading files. It's right there. This seamless integration doesn't just save time. It builds a much stronger connection between team members. When everyone's looking at the exact same data, at the same time, in the same context, decision-making becomes so much faster, and more reliable. There's less back and forth. Fewer errors. The whole workflow just clicks. And that's really the game-changer here. SIMLAB STAGES isn't just tacking on Procore. It's making it an intuitive, interactive part of the way you work. Now, let's talk about how this 3D digital twin visualization capability and real-time syncing actually redefine issue tracking. It's one thing to have a list of Punch Items or RFIs — great, a list—but it's another to see those listed items mapped exactly where they exist in a digital twin. That's what SIMLAB STAGES offers. It's issue tracking on Steroids. Think about this: instead of someone reading a description and guessing, "Okay, I think this issue is in the third-floor hallway, with SIMLAB STAGES, you're literally seeing it in a 3D space. The issue isn't hypothetical anymore. It's there — visually represented: down to its precise location. And that means less confusion, fewer follow-ups, and way more efficiency. What's even cooler? When you update something in SIMLAB STAGES—let's say you resolve an RFI or assign it: boom, it's automatically synced back into Procore. And it works the other way too. That's bi-directional syncing, and it's a game-changer. Everything stays aligned. No lag. No redundant updates. No manual cross-checking. The result? Real-time communication that pulls everyone — whether they're on-site or remote — onto the same page. Whether it's your subcontractors, your project managers, or your clients, everyone's collaborating off the same, up-to-the-minute info in the exact same context. It's real-time alignment at its best. And this visibility does more than just save time; it eliminates the missteps that happen when teams are stuck trying to interpret disconnected data. You can make decisions faster because, well, everything you need is right there in front of you — clearly. No communication gaps to slow things down. So, by embedding Procore's robust data into a Matterport or NavVis interactive 3D space, SIMLAB STAGES takes issue tracking from being reactive to being proactive — which is a seismic shift in how construction teams collaborate and deliver their projects. Now, let's dig into how centralizing project documentation in SIMLAB STAGES doesn't just make your life easier — it actually helps reduce errors in a big way. Here's the thing. When you've got everything — Punch Items, RFIs, documents — all mapped visually into a 3D environment, you're removing a ton of the guesswork. You're making sure everyone's on the same page, not just metaphorically but literally. It's there in front of them, tied to the exact location in the project to help avoid confusion. The impact of this? It's not theoretical. Construction teams can cut down rework by a massive percentage. Why? Because the documentation is accurate from the start. Punch Items are not sitting in some disconnected spreadsheet; they are right there in the Matterport digital twin or in a NavVis digital twin. So, there isn't a need for back-and-forth, trying to figure out, "Wait, which wall was this issue on, again?" By embedding this process into SIMLAB STAGES and syncing it with Procore, every move can be made with well-informed and spatially precise info. No double-checking, no fixing errors caused by miscommunication. You can just look, decide, and act—all in one sweep. That's powerful. And for today's construction teams, tools like SIMLAB STAGES are becoming less of a "nice-to-have" and more of a need. It's tackling inefficiencies that have been treated as just part of the business for far too long. Imagine what this kind of clarity and precision can do not just for one site but for an entire portfolio of projects. That's next-level construction management. So, see fewer errors, stronger collaboration, and a lot less stress for everyone involved. And to me, that's the real value here. It's taking something as complex as construction project management and making it not only simpler but smarter. And that's, well, a game-changer. On that note, we're gonna wrap it up.

► Save 30% with Code: WGAN30REG at www.3DISE.com --- The Future of 3D Spatial Innovation Eric Marquette Just looking at the lineup for 3DISE Conference 2025, it's like a who's who of the spatial tech world. I mean, over thirty top speakers, covering everything from digital twins to AI-powered photogrammetry? It's kind of mind-blowing. Dan Smigrod Absolutely. This is, without a doubt, one of the most intensive conferences for professionals in our field. Digital twins, for example, are going far beyond architecture now. They're being used in urban planning, industrial plants, even entertainment. It's—it's fascinating how the technology keeps expanding its reach. Eric Marquette Right. And I love the phrase 'information tsunami' they used to describe the event. Like, think about that session on "A.I. and Photogrammetry." That intersection is where things are getting super innovative. Dan Smigrod A.I.'s application to photogrammetry, it’s really remarkable. Just imagine the speed and detail improvement in processing 3D models. We're talking tasks that used to take days, or weeks, now done in hours. And these models aren’t just static—A.I. allows them to be predictive. Eric Marquette That's it. Predictive modeling! And, people always think of this stuff as being only for massive projects. But it’s trickling down. Even smaller firms can now afford—and actually benefit from—A.I.-powered tools. Dan Smigrod Exactly. And this leads us to the keynote on digital twins—another massive shift. What’s amazing about digital twins is their versatility. In factories, they simulate production; in retail, they’re creating virtual tours of spaces. It’s this blending of physical and digital worlds. Eric Marquette Like, how cool is that? You can take a space or system and make the virtual version so detailed that you’re basically predicting the future. I mean, airports, theme parks, entire cities—they’re building these twins and saying, "Here’s how we optimize this." It's wild stuff. Dan Smigrod This is shaping up to be one of the must-attend conferences of the year. From deep-dives like "Reality Capture and GIS" to big-picture panels about collaboration. Eric Marquette It's a glimpse into the future of how we design, create, and connect through 3D innovation. Dan Smigrod The 3DISE Conference 2025 ... is Thursday, April 24th and Friday, April 25th in Prague. Save 30 percent with code: WGAN30REG at 3DISE.com. That's 3-D-I-S-E dot com.

1 345. BIMworld Munich 2024: Matterport + SIMLAB STAGES and SIMLAB SIM-ON for Commercial Construction and Property Management 15:04
In November 2024, the global spotlight turned to BIMworld Munich, where Marek Koźlak, PhD, Founder and CEO of SIMLAB , took the stage to present a groundbreaking vision for the future of property management and construction technology. With an audience of industry professionals spanning the Architecture, Engineering, and Construction (AEC) and Facility Management (FM) sectors, Koźlak’s presentation illuminated the transformative potential of digital twin solutions like SIMLAB STAGES and SIMLAB SIM-ON . SIMLAB’s mission, as Dr. Koźlak stated, is simple yet powerful: "Helping you feel more comfortable with your property." This vision resonates across all phases of a building’s life-cycle, from design and construction to operation, maintenance, and even renovation. By bridging gaps in interoperability and offering intuitive tools for asset management, IoT control, and collaboration, SIMLAB is creating a unified digital ecosystem for the AEC industry.

Dr. Koźlak showcased how STAGES addresses these pain points with its construction progress monitoring and issue tracking tools. The platform’s timeline feature enables contractors to review the status of a project at any given stage, compare scans over time, and resolve discrepancies quickly. Why This Matters: With all construction data centralized and easily accessible, contractors can eliminate communication gaps, reduce rework, and complete projects faster. STAGES empowers teams to collaborate seamlessly, whether they are onsite or remote. For Insurance Companies and Financial Institutions: Improving Risk Assessment Dr. Koźlak emphasized the value of digital twin technology for insurance and banking professionals. SIMLAB’s platforms provide a comprehensive historical log of property documentation, including warranties, maintenance records, and IoT sensor data. Insurers and banks can access accurate, up-to-date information about a property’s condition, reducing risks during underwriting or claims processing. Why This Matters: With SIMLAB’s solutions, financial institutions gain a transparent view of assets, enabling better decision-making and reducing liability risks. Insurers can also leverage visual documentation to speed up claims assessments and minimize fraud. For Real Estate Developers and Property Owners: Elevating Asset Value Real estate developers and property owners attending BIMworld Munich learned how SIMLAB’s digital twin platforms can enhance the value and marketability of properties. By providing a detailed visual record of a building’s life-cycle, SIMLAB’s tools help developers showcase the quality and sustainability of their projects to potential buyers or investors. Why This Matters: Developers can differentiate themselves in a competitive market by demonstrating transparency and a commitment to innovation. The ability to provide potential buyers with a complete digital history of the property adds immense value. A Call to Action: Embracing the Future of Digital Twin Technology Dr. Koźlak concluded his presentation with a bold vision for the future of digital twin technology. As SIMLAB prepares to expand its footprint in Europe and the United States, the company is actively seeking collaborations with AEC professionals, real estate developers, and technology integrators. With their solutions already generating impressive traction — 2,000 customers and over €2 million in revenue—SIMLAB is poised to redefine how properties are designed, managed, and maintained. The potential of digital twin technology is limitless, and SIMLAB is leading the charge. As Dr. Koźlak aptly stated, "Coordination, communication, and collaboration are the keys to unlocking the full potential of the built environment." This transformative message from BIMworld Munich serves as a rallying cry for industry stakeholders to embrace innovation and join SIMLAB on their journey toward a smarter, more connected future.

This technology allows real estate professionals to digitally stage listing images in seconds, eliminating the need for physical furniture and decor.

The acquisition closed Oct. 7, 2024, and the VSAI teams are beginning to integrate into Zillow. We’re excited to bring this technology to real estate professionals as part of Zillow’s broad suite of software and advertising solutions. VSAI offers the next generation of listing innovation to elevate the listing experience on Zillow for home shoppers. Their AI-powered virtual staging technology generates listing photos that are nearly indistinguishable from traditionally staged listings. Real estate professionals can easily upload room photos, select a room type and furniture style, and create high-quality, fully staged images almost instantly with the click of a button, thanks to VSAI’s cutting-edge, interactive technology. Being able to stage spaces and edit the images within seconds eliminates wait time and back-and-forth to implement changes. The acquisition of VSAI underscores Zillow’s commitment to enabling the real estate industry to become more digital, integrated and productive. By leveraging Zillow’s tech, AI and product expertise, real estate professionals can focus on serving their clients with the high-value, person-to-person work that makes a customer experience exceptional. Zillow’s research shows home sellers consider interactive media when preparing to list their home. For example, 71% of sellers say they’re more likely to hire an agent who includes virtual tours and/or interactive floor plans in their services, according to Zillow’s 2024 Consumer Housing Trends Report. Virtual staging gives sellers another interactive media option to enhance their listing. Virtual staging is currently available to real estate professionals through VSAI’s website, and we look forward to offering this tech to agents and photographers through Zillow’s product suite in the near future. VSAI was co-founded in 2023 by Michael Bonacina and Mikhail Andreev. They began working on this technology at Harvard Innovation Labs as students while researching AI and image processing. Most of the VSAI team is based in Munich, and as part of the acquisition, they have joined Zillow’s AI and tech teams to continue developing this virtual staging technology. We’re working to integrate VSAI’s technology into Zillow Showcase, creating an even more immersive listing experience to help clients sell their homes by giving buyers the most realistic, accurate sense of a home before they step inside. Zillow Showcase drives powerful results for agents and sellers — listings using Showcase sell faster and for more money . Zillow is leading the digital transformation of real estate, and we’re excited that the VSAI team and their impressive technology will now be part of this effort. --- Source: Zillow Group…
