The technology behind OpenSpace’s patent-pending algorithms and 360 photo documentation software is the culmination of nearly two decades of combined research and development using these foundational technologies. The team first began working in computer vision and big data visualization back at MIT, where they were earning their PhDs. Similar to the technology behind self-driving cars, these algorithms have been adapted for the construction industry by our team of PhDs from MIT, CalTech, Stanford and Berkeley.

Construction is a team sport. To succeed, projects need careful alignment in vision and execution across stakeholders throughout the stages of planning, designing, and constructing a building. For centuries, this has meant groups of individuals being physically present on the job site to discuss decision points. However, the pandemic has forced us to rethink that…
This year has brought so many new challenges for construction teams — from local lockdowns to health concerns to project delays and remote work. While many construction companies across the country have gone back to work, there are still a lot of jobsites that are fully or partially shut down. Construction work is never easy, but…
For the last few months, ever since the release of the iPad Pro, we have been experimenting with Apple’s new LiDAR sensor. The results have been great and in anticipation of the launch of the new iPhone 12 with LiDAR we invested in some R&D on a feature that we call 3D Field NotesTM. While…
