Matterport for Live Events

We attended the London Proptech show recently where we met lots of interesting people who are driving innovation in the property sector.

But the product that seemed to have the most uses for property professionals at the show, from architects to estate agents, was the Matterport Pro3 camera.  As part of our live demonstrations, we showed delegates how easily and quickly a space could be mapped out by simply pushing a button and...
