Episode Timeline
Laser scanning technology has applications in many industries: architecture, engineering, design, construction, insurance, forensics, oil and gas facilities, manufacturing, utilities, transportation, and much more. Despite its wide relevancy, there is a surprising lack of education about the use cases and benefits of laser scanning technology.
The Reality Capture Network was developed as Matthew’s answer to the increasing need for education on this innovative technology. Through the RCN Podcast and Education Center, Matthew plans to provide a platform to share use cases, benefits, reviews, tutorials, and the pros and cons of integrating this technology into workflows in other industries. Matthew plans to interview guests about their experiences with the technology, diving deep into case studies, pain points, and technology selection.
Tune in to Episode 1 of the RCN Podcast to be introduced to Matthew and Phillip and hear their thoughts on what’s to come with the Reality Capture Network.
