Introduction
Mapping interiors with a cell phone can be challenging, but with the right techniques and settings, you can create accurate and detailed models. In this tutorial, we'll set you up for success through the best practices for interior mapping using your camera app to record cell phone video.
Before You Record
Use the following settings for your phone to ensure the best 3D model
Record 1080p 60fps, wide angle lens (0.5x) in portrait mode.
Point your phone slightly downwards, so you capture more of the floor than the ceiling. If you get too much ceiling, your model will be upside down.
Tap and hold the screen to set auto exposure lock.
Record vertically in portrait mode while moving slowly and smoothly.
Face the opposite wall and record it.
