Hyperscape Capture Beta

Hello WTFGamer,

We’re genuinely excited that you’re diving into Meta Horizon Hyperscape Capture (Beta), it’s a fresh and fascinating experience, and your enthusiasm means a lot to us!

To help you get the most out of your captures, we recommend checking out this helpful page filled with tips and insights. It’s a great starting point for learning how to enhance the quality of your scans and make the most of the app’s features.

Regarding the low-storage warning you encountered. That message refers to your local Quest headset storage. While the Hyperscape Capture app itself is just 254.85 MB, the raw data from a large scan can take up several gigabytes before it's uploaded for processing. To avoid interruptions, it’s a good idea to ensure you have enough free space available before starting a big capture.

Since this is an early access release, the app is still evolving, which means some best practices are still being discovered. If you run into any problems or have suggestions, your feedback is incredibly valuable to the developers and helps shape the future of the experience.

Happy exploring!

I found that if you move more slowly during the scans it will capture better! Also the lighting needs to be super bright otherwise once it’s created your world it will come out somewhat grainy and distorted in places. 

I have been testing with Hyperscape and have one question and one suggestion. 

1. The question as mentioned earlier, is how can you get sharper images. Have tried different light, different scan speeds and still not as sharp as I see on several YouTube videos.
2. I just did a 40min detailed scan of a Board room for a presentation and between switching to the last step, hit the cancel in error of the continue. There was no warning "are you sure you want to cancel", all that time went down the drain and I had to wait for another opportunity to do my scan and wait for the headset to recharge. Can you add a failsafe to each step as it's easy to have the controller when coming back on after a long scan, accidently hit the cancel as it's so close to the "continue."

Hey brianlrichards!

We came across your post and wanted to ask if you would be able to Submit a Bug Report so that our engineers can have a look into this for you!

We hope this issue is resolved soon and our engineers can get to the bottom of this ASAP!

Is it possibel to use Hyperscape Capture to capture a space without a wifi connection or with just a week connection, then upload it once WiFi is available? This would be great for capturing spaces away from home.

I see hyperscape passed from version 15 to 16 so it looks like there was a major update... but I can't notice any difference, is there a release note?

Professional Feedback & Feature Suggestions for Meta Hyperscape (Real Estate Use Case)

Dear Meta Hyperscape Team,

My name is Valentin Bapst, and I am currently developing a professional virtual reality service for the real estate industry using Meta Quest and Hyperscape.

Over the past few days, I have been testing Hyperscape extensively and presenting the experience to local real estate professionals. The feedback has been very positive, and several agencies have expressed interest in using immersive VR tours as a new way to showcase properties to their clients.

I truly believe Hyperscape has the potential to become an outstanding professional tool for the real estate industry. While testing it in real-world scenarios, I identified a few features that would make it even more powerful for business use.

Some features that could significantly improve the experience include:

• The ability to measure walls, rooms, and distances directly inside the VR environment.
• Basic editing tools, such as temporarily hiding or removing walls to help clients visualize renovation projects or new layouts.
• The ability to easily share scans and virtual tours with colleagues or clients.
• Cloud storage to organize, manage, and access multiple projects across devices.
• Support for exporting projects or integrating with professional real estate workflows.
• Multi-user collaboration, allowing several people to explore the same property together in VR.

My goal is to build a professional service around immersive property visualization, and Hyperscape is currently one of the most impressive technologies I have tested.

If there is a product team, beta program, or feedback channel dedicated to Hyperscape, I would be delighted to share more detailed feedback based on my experience in the real estate sector. I would also be happy to test new features and provide practical feedback from real-world use cases.

Thank you for your time and for the incredible work your team is doing.

Kind regards,

Valentin Bapst
