A reality capture tool that offers 3D visualization of a construction site is gaining traction with contractors on large projects, helped by key integrations with Procore and Autodesk.

Just a few years ago, Matterport’s Pro2 camera could capture images and send them to the cloud, and could be exported to the GearVR and Google Cardboard smartphone-based virtual reality platforms. Matterport then entered into a partnership with Leica Geosystems to bring 3D point clouds generated by Leica’s BLK laser scanner into Matterport’s 3D models. Now these elaborate reality capture models can be imported with a few clicks into Procore or the Autodesk Construction Cloud (ACC).
