We support 4 Insta360 cameras and Ricoh Theta X, with the Insta360 ONE X2 model being our number one recommendation.

Let's set up the Insta360 cameras in three simple steps.

First, connect your camera and open the Insta360 app. Swipe to Timelapse mode in the bottom menu.

Set the interval duration to 0.5 second.

And make sure the Auto mode icon is selected.

Let's set up the Ricoh Theta X camera in two simple steps.

First, turn on your camera, tap the shooting settings icon and select the Video size.

Set 8k 2fps.

Now you can start video recording by walking around with your 360° camera mounted on a selfie stick or a helmet. For a higher-quality 3D dollhouse, follow our six tips to take it to the next level.

Tip 1, hold your camera above your head and walk at a normal pace.

Tip 2, capture unique angles and perspectives by adjusting the length of your selfie stick while recording 360° videos. We recommend using the Insta360 Extended Edition Selfie Stick.

Tip 3, try to keep the starting and ending point of your recording as close as possible.

Tip 4, ensure sufficient lighting for accurate scene recognition but avoid using a flashlight while walking.

Tip 5, keep the 360 camera about 2 feet away from nearby structures.

Tip 6, pause walking for 3 seconds in key areas and get high-quality 360 images. By following these simple tips you can achieve even higher-quality 3D dollhouses.

Note, you should limit recording time to 20 minutes, as only the first 20 minutes of the video footage will undergo 3D mapping. For reference a 20 minute walk can cover the size of a standard soccer field.

Our 3D perception range is 16.5 feet. So in order to fully 3D map an entire soccer field without any gaps, make sure to overlap your path as shown in the video.

Cupix creates both a dollhouse and a 360 virtual tour. It's worth mentioning that areas like the examples here can cause partial gaps or scattered points in the dollhouse.
