How Smores works.

System overview

One pipeline, end to end.

Capture hardware

Capture rig — our own hardware.

We design and build our own multi-camera capture rig — a portable ring that sets up in minutes with no markers, wearables, or room modifications. It runs on 8 cameras today, with a path to 2–3 as our models improve.

Reconstruction & streaming

Reconstruction & streaming engine.

Our cloud engine fuses the camera feeds into a live, explorable 3D scene and streams it in real time. Reconstructing a full 3D scene from just a few views is the hard AI problem — and it's the core of what we do.

Viewer apps

View it anywhere.

The same capture plays across devices — a phone and web app for everyday access, and a native VR app for full immersion.

The moat

The data flywheel.

Every capture generates rare, real-world 3D data — proprietary, and hard to scrape or buy. That data trains our models to do more with fewer cameras and unlocks new capabilities. More captures → more data → better models → lower cost and wider reach.
