Polycam unveils new tools for capturing, documenting and collaborating on physical spaces
Polycam, a computer vision platform for photorealistic 3D capture, has launched a suite of new tools designed to streamline 3D workflows for professionals in architecture, engineering, construction and product design, a recent announcement said.
According to the announcement, the company's Vision 25 release is its most ambitious product initiative to date and includes enhancements that make it easier for teams to capture spatial data and collaborate across a 3D canvas.
“These are more than just incremental upgrades—they’re a rethinking of how 3D creation can solve real-world challenges,” Polycam CEO Elliot Spelman said in a statement. “By giving professionals the ability to capture, document and collaborate with speed and accuracy, we’re helping them move from concept to execution faster and with more confidence than ever before.”
The release includes three key innovations—Space Mode, Scene Editor and Spatial Report—that enhance how professionals capture, visualize and document spaces.
Space Mode provides detailed space captures to generate floorplans by allowing users to scan and document spaces like homes, buildings and industrial facilities using LiDAR-equipped iOS devices. Each capture automatically generates a textured 3D model, a simplified and vectorized model and a detailed 2D floor plan.
The Scene Editor enables teams to merge multiple 3D captures into a single, unified scene. Designed for larger projects, this tool helps teams visualize spaces at scale, whether combining floors of a building or assembling designs for complex layouts.
The new AI-driven Spatial Report instantly generates detailed PDF summaries of captured spaces, including measurements, dimensions and spatial data such as total volume, wall area and door and window dimensions.
