I am amazed by this. I’ve been playing with a 3D scanning app on iPhone as a total amateur and totally new to the mode of collection and it truly produces amazing results with only iPhone lidar. Scaniverse if you’re curious.

#215Incredible. Thank you so much for that. What an incredible project and one I think will make a huge impact for years. Question. I noticed a very unusual experience I've not felt before in a 3D world; I started to feel claustrophobic - so much so I had to close the tab. I'm curious; has anyone else experienced the same do you know? If so, any ideas why it should be so powerful a feeling in this particular case?
I'm a tall guy, and started feeling claustrophobic when I saw what some of the tunnel entrances looked like. I never used the measurement tool to verify, but they looked like they'd have made me prefer crawling instead of crouching. Something that confirmed my suspicion: In the King's chamber, 'stand' next to the sarcophagus, and look behind you. I won't explain further.

#217Going through the pyramid brought back so many amazing memories. Had such a great trip here and because of this, I got to experience it again.
The website interactions are silky smooth and beautifully done and the image quality is just incredible!
Thanks for putting this together!

#218Incredible work bringing so many moving parts together to make such a seamless, immersive experience. Online museums have been an aspiration since the early days of the web, and this exhibit sets a new bar. One slight hiccup I noticed: The guided tour frequently clips through the geometry, which breaks the immersion a bit. I don't know if the Matterport SDK has any facilities for following paths rather than a straigh…

#219EDIT: I didn't say it (it goes without saying), but this is awesome, especially as a work of preservation.

#220Earlier quoted context omitted.
That's what I think whenever I play Minetest. My inventory can fit 40 stacks of 99 cubic meters of stone: 3960 cubic meters, about 10000 tonnes. I guess Sam's backpack is bigger on the inside than the outside...
What is Minetest?
