About OpalAi
ScanTo3D is an iOS application developed by OpalAi that allows users to scan large environments swiftly for prominent structures such as houses and buildings. By leveraging the scanning functionality of devices with LiDAR cameras, ScanTo3D creates accurate 2D floor plans, BIM models, and 3D visualizations of these large spaces. Users can add texture and colors directly in the app, granting them the ability to create a digital twin of their place. Further, with the opportunity to take measurements on your device, users can edit and extend the ongoing scan. On completion, users can choose from a variety of formats to share their scans, including OBJ, GLTF, GLB, STL, and FBX. The app also offers an upload feature for users to get a 2D/3D FloorPlan with ANSI complaint GLA calculations. The application uses machine learning and AI-enabled algorithms to assist in the automation of these processes, ensuring a low margin of error. It is designed to be user-friendly, thus it doesn't require trained operators or expensive equipment to run. It reduces on-site planning and scanning time considerably, making the process of creating 3D models of large environments more accessible and straightforward.
