It's been a very exciting two days. We've been talking about lots of different contents and how things can be uploaded and provided to Google Street View.Just to talk you through where Matterport's at, this is our workhorse camera, this is the Pro2 Camera that Matterport has designed and invented. We have changed the way our business ingests content in the last couple of quarters so essentially we now can accept content from the Ricoh Theta V and the Ricoh Theta Z1 as well as the Insta360 One X.You can capture content with these devices, upload it to the Matterport platform. Our AI then makes that become 3D so you get the full Matterport 3D experience that you're used to with the Pro2 camera. From there, you can then upload to Google Street View.We found, in a survey that we ran in 2018, that 84% of photographers that have a Matterport camera upload to Google Street View. We also found in that survey that 71% of photographers that use the Google Street View function with Matterport have found it the fastest way to upload to Google Street View.It's been very useful for travel and hospitality especially, where clients have captured the lobby and then uploaded the lobby of a hotel to Google Street View. Also, with leisure and some of commercial real estate as well. Thank you very much.

We make 360 content creation, very simple. We integrate now with Matterport or we're working closely with Matterport content creators, but with Matterport itself as well. Obviously to simplify the workflow for creativity, virtual tours for creating content.Why are we here? Why are we at a Google Street View conference? Obviously it's our ambition to make sure that there's as many people out there as possible to create good 360 content.Big difference between these two cameras is when we introduced Theta V where the very good high performing camera, but these are only at 14 million pixels for stitch files. Whereas with Theta Z1 we increased this to 23 million pixels, one inch sensor, shooting in raw, which is the feature that many professionals were asking about.So we started to introduce lots of more features for the professionals, and hopefully this is a camera to your liking. So I would encourage everybody to start using it, discover it, work with it in Matterport, Google Street View, any platform, because it's just a fantastic camera.Thank you very much.

And just wanted to talk a little bit about some of the things that we're focusing on in EMEA at the moment.So few different core focuses. Obviously, one is geographic expansion. At the moment we sell into four core territories.The first is the United Kingdom and English-speaking Europe, so some of Northern Europe. The second is France and the French-speaking Western Europe. The third is the DAC territory, so Germany, Austria, Switzerland and some of Eastern Europe, and the last is a Southern Europe, so Spain, Italy, Portugal, are the four core markets that we sell into.So that's the geographic expansion that we're looking at.And then the other piece is the segment development or the new verticals that we're going into.So as everybody knows, Matterport is the industry leader for residential real estate and a very big percentage of our business is in that market.But we're also moving into travel and hospitality, architecture, engineering, construction, insurance, and a number of other verticals because the application of Matterport is so broad, essentially any physical assets can be copied and we can make a digital twin and that can be represented online.Thank you very much.

And this is a quick release system.

I'm the technical sales director at NCTech.I'm here at the Google Street View Summit and we're here to talk about our iSTAR Pulsar camera and you can see here it's mounted on a backpack system which allows the wearer to walk around with the camera.They're positioned underneath the camera so they're not in the shot. And with this system, you can go around trails, you could walk down streets, anywhere that a normal vehicle management system can't go, which leads me on to the next product.[Dan Smigrod: (Off-Camera): Before you go on, what else do we see here?]Oh yeah. So here we have the battery and then we have cable running up to the unit itself. And then this is our custom carbon fiber mount, the lock system, and that just allows that to be positioned directly above the wearer's head. So that's the backpack.Over here, now we have a vehicle mount and this is magnetic feet. So this attaches to the roof of the vehicle, very easy to set up. And this is a quick release system. So this could be in the vehicle and then you're capturing.And then when you're done, you just release that and off it comes. There it goes, take that off there, there we go. Pop that off and then when you're ready to continue capturing, just put it back on, lock it down.So in addition to the magnetic feet, we also do clamps. So if you have roof bars with crossbars, you can clamp it to the vehicle. But this makes it a very swift and easy system to deploy.So that's it. Two systems to use and transport iSTAR Pulsar; either vehicle mount for roads or backpack when you want to go off on the trails or on the street.And that's it from NCTech and the [2019] Google Street View Summit.
