ConTechTrio recently reviewed the THETA S for use in the construction industry. This videocast is powered by JBKnowledge, technology experts in construction and insurance.
Why take a 360 photo on a construction site?
Traditional route is to use a smartphone or a digital.
A 360 camera [like the RICOH THETA S] allows you to take less pictures, meaning it takes less time. It also improves the quality of the pictures.
If you walk into a room, different parts of construction projects of have lots of elements that you’re trying to document. If you do that, you’ll take lots of photos.
But what if you could take less photos, in an experience where you can look all the way around it?
