Tips & Tricks:

  • We currently do not support switching floors within the same capture. If you are walking to a different floor, simply start a new capture.

  • Captures need to be uploaded before you can see them in OpenSpace.

  • You will receive an email notification when your capture is ready for viewing - confirm your OpenSpace Notifications.

If you have any additional questions please reach out to the OpenSpace support team at support@openspace.ai.
