I'm probably not in the target audience, but still, it looks lovely, I've enjoyed exploring the 3d part.
As a suggestion, a full screen button for the 3d scene would be nice, as I don't have VR, just a regular monitor. And if you're feeling adventurous, you could maybe even add WASD support for greater immersion. But that's a bit of work, as you would probably also have to include a physics lib for dealing with collisions.
Also, I almost didn't see the "try it out" link.
All the best with your project!
Also, could you tweak you algorithm to have the geometry deform less at the edges of the viewport? At the moment it's a little extreme and distracting.
Feature request: In the top/overview view I would like to be able to tap on each room and then the pivot point should move to the center of that room. After a double tap or tap on the top view button the pivot point should move back to the apartment center point. This will help zooming easily into each room from above.
You probably should mention that on the front page somewhere
You plan to add VR in the future?
I hope it does well in the market and you can profit off your work in here.
Best of luck!
Looks cool at a glance and wishing you all the best with it!
I created an account with the intention of kicking the tires, but I have hit wall after wall and I never actually got to the cool 3D part.
If you take one thing from this message, I strongly urge you to make sure that new accounts start with a sample project in the list which people can play with to see what to expect.
In my case, I don't have a floor plan or know my square meters. I went onto Google images and borrowed a plan to upload. The TL;DR is that it seems like I have to pay $33 to see what this place would look like in 3D, and that's when I bounced. I'm curious, but I'm not that curious.
After the sample project, I hope that you will add a 2-3 minute onboarding video to show people how to get started. Getting dropped into any interface with only a vague idea of what is supposed to happen is a guaranteed way to lose 90% of your visitors to unnecessary friction.
Make it stupid simple to get started. Give people a look at the outcome so that they know what to covet.
I'm Nick. This is Roometron, my first project that I managed to launch by myself while being a web developer and having a full-time job.
I started working on it in 2019, so it took almost 5 years to deliver a beta version now.
It was both a fun and challenging journey. I didn't expect things to go so slowly, but anyway, I'm happy to announce it's finally launched.
What is Roometron?
Roometron is a tool that converts floor plans into 3D apartments. It is VR-ready, highly performant, fast, efficient, and affordable due to its incredible automation.
Feel free to ask any questions.
Cheers.
