It's a cool idea but seems like it will be difficult to get paying customers at $40 a pop. The value is there, but people are not used to paying this way. I wonder if instead revenue could be extracted from purchases made based on the renderings, or via other partnerships.

#12The service works like this: The homeowner takes several pictures of the space they want to decorate — ideally a photo from each of the room’s corners. Then, these photos are uploaded to Modsy after which the homeowner takes a style quiz about their likes and dislikes. This takes about 5 minutes and basically involves clicking on photos. Then Modsy takes over. About 48 hours later, the results are delivered. Modsy us…

Yeah, seems like bringing the showroom into your house would be a great way to sell furniture and accessories. Make this a platform for retailers and manufacturers!

Just getting a "floor plan" or empty room is much easier. But yes, it's an active area of research in Computer Vision / Graphics. Later on in the article it says "90% automated" and that things are checked. That'll be good enough to make this cost feasible.
