[url="http://floored.com/"]Floored[/url] scans office spaces, apartments and houses using 3D camera technology and proprietary software to build customizable 3D models for real estate purposes. At [url="http://techcrunch.com/events/disrupt-ny-2013/"]Disrupt NY 2013[/url], the company launched the platform to create an immersive, interactive and user-friendly experience. Instead of static photos and floor plans, you can move around in real-time, add furniture and easily realize if the space is a good fit.
“The marketing in the commercial real estate industry is absolutely abysmal,” co-founder and CEO Dave Eisenberg said in a phone interview before Disrupt. “The two-dimensional floor plan has not evolved in decades.”
At first, Eisenberg was interested in 3D capturing and wanted to explore potential real-world applications. That’s when he discovered [url="http://www.matterport.com/"]Matterport[/url], a 3D device to capture interior spaces, and partnered with it to take advantage of Matterport’s existing hardware solutions.


NB: Why did you decide to pick that vertical?
Answer: We have a very open filter. We picked real estate because it’s huge and this is probably the easiest thing that we could do.

RP: How long does it take to scan a place?
A: The townhouse that you saw was completely auto-generated. Over time, the overall time is going to get shorter.

RP: I’m just curious about your costs.
A: To scan it’s $.25 per square foot, to clean up it’s $.25-$.30 per square foot.

TC: What are your technology challenges?
A: Out of our team of ten, we have nine engineers. This is a tech-oriented company. To go from a raw set of data to a clean-up space, it will be automated for 40 percent of our work.

RP: Will you create a database of spaces?
A: I’d love to do that. As the costs will go down and down, there will be a massive explosion of 3D data. Every time a lease opens up, we are doing a 3D scan.

TC: How do you get new data for decoration or a piece of furniture.
A: Every time we scan, we get data. We can do 3D models pretty quickly as well.

NB: How do you launch in new markets?
A: We haven’t done it yet. But it’s pretty easy to teach someone to use the camera.

RP: How much does the camera cost?
A: It will soon cost the price of a nice DSLR.





PS: Ma company already introduced this on industrial level with Laser scanners whcih output the entire Industrial model in drawing file....
