It would be very useful to be able to export the scanner 'RealView' as a spherical map for use in visualization pipelines. For scenes like the one attached, a spherical map is used in Max/Maya/Stingray as the background and reflection map. CGI elements are then added to the scene. This allows a customer to quickly integrate photo realistic CGI into an established setting and environment captured by the scan. This also extends the workflow to allow the scan to form the basis of the as-is vs. to-be model in an analysis, visual communication, serious game, or engineering modeling pipeline.
