Thank you.
Is the scan data available and if so - under what licence?

Doesn’t help.
Quoted post unavailable.
What’s with the passive-aggressive unhelpful Apple-hating comments?
Just users of a browser with 20% of mobile market share, reporting a bug.
And btw, I can confirm this crashes for me some way into the pyramid (iOS 16).

#43That is insanely cool. The dollhouse view is nice. It would be great if you could see a 2D schematic of where you are in the pyramid as you're exploring. Incredible job!
Actually liked that it lacked a minimap. Got a better sense of scale. After going trough most of the tunnels and getting stuck and kings chamber there, couldn't crawl back, I zomemed out and was shocked by the scale of the tunnels.

#44It's nice. Maybe the best matterport's example I have seen so far... The 3D in the transitions [of two 360 photos] are really good and the pixel quality is great. But still... The very limited part of Matterport is that it is "mostly" a series of 360 photos. Now, because a pyramid is mainly a long corridor, you do not see too much those limitations. So great.

It's not only 2D 360, there's full 3D photogrammetry. Click on the dollhouse button on the bottom left.

#45Semi-related, the Great Pyramid was also scanned using muon radiography, by which a "big void" was discovered [0]. Muons can penetrate through a lot of material, so they can see through very large, thick things like the pyramids. Muon tomography was also used to scan the Fukushima reactors [1] and see where the fuel ended up. [0] https://arxiv.org/pdf/1711.01576.pdf [1] https://www.world-nuclear-news.org/RS-Muons-sug…
A void? Is it another chamber? I have so many questions. Though from the images, it doesn't seem like a chamber.

#46Many years ago I had the chance to visit the Pyramid of Giza but when it was time to go inside it, I've been instantly stopped by my visualization of how I would feel in this tight and claustrophobic space (almost crouching in some places, I've been told), especially if there are many people at the same time, and you cannot easily move.. So I'm very glad to be able to finally see it with such an amazing technology, thanks!

#47The page crashes for me on iOS.
That is so odd, after all Safari is known to have wide support for everything. /s

Thanks for those links.
This virtual visit mentions that, because it shows a similar experiment being done now (I suppose they're trying to find if there are more voids that could be hidden chambers)
