The Matterport 3D Camera is considered to be the first 3D camera to have made to market and is beginning to unify both the physical and digital world through its ability to capture and render physical environments.
Controlled via an iPad app, the Matterport 3D Camera captures environments using 2D and 3D sensors. Whether the room is empty or cluttered, the Matterport 3D Camera is expected to work flawlessly and create the images in the cloud. The Matterport 3D Camera looks something akin to an old school camera but in a boxier form factor.
Matterport plans to make the camera available to everyone, however for the moment, the company is focusing on marketing the camera to larger industries such as construction and insurance companies.

Trend Themes
1. 3D Mapping - The ability to capture and render physical environments in 3D opens up opportunities for immersive experiences, virtual tours, and advanced spatial mapping applications.
2. Cloud Imaging - Storing and processing captured images in the cloud allows for easy access and sharing, reducing the need for local storage and increasing collaboration possibilities.
3. Mobile Control - Controlling the 3D camera via a mobile app enables ease of use, remote operation, and integration with other mobile devices or technologies.
Industry Implications
1. Construction - Using 3D mapping and cloud imaging in construction can streamline project planning, improve collaboration, and enhance virtual walkthroughs and presentations.
2. Insurance - Insurance companies can benefit from 3D mapping and cloud imaging by accurately assessing and documenting property damage, analyzing risk factors, and improving claim processing efficiency.
