Capture best practices
- Use a hardhat mount or selfie stick to keep the camera above your head.
- Use a lighting rig when working in the dark.
- Walk slowly but purposefully, as if you're holding a full cup of a hot liquid.
- Walk in loops or figure eights. 360 Capture works best if it can identify a pattern.
Your first capture
- Ensure the 360 camera is on.
- On your mobile device, ensure Bluetooth and Wi-Fi are enabled on the mobile device.
- In the mobile device settings, enable Location Services for ProjectSight.
- Confirm the drawings you want are already downloaded on your device.
- Near the bottom of the device page, select Take a 360° capture and link it to the drawing.
- When you see the name of the camera, select Connect. It may take a few minutes to find your camera.
- Select a drawing.
