Stage 3: First Room Capture #3

Description

@CloudStrife7

What this stage does

Captures your first real room using OpenQuestCapture. The quality of this
capture directly determines quality of the final Gaussian Splat — read all
tips before starting.

Tips before you start

  • Walk slowly. Rapid head movements cause motion blur and bad reconstruction.
  • Aim for 1 to 3 minutes of capture time.
  • Every surface needs point cloud coverage from multiple angles — look for
    a mix of white (head-on) and vivid colored (grazing) points on each surface.
  • Avoid rooms with large bright windows unless you enable tone mapping in config.

Tasks

  • 1. Choose a well-lit indoor room with consistent lighting
  • 2. Put on Quest 3, launch OpenQuestCapture, wait for point cloud to appear
  • 3. Press left Menu button to start recording
  • 4. Walk slowly around the room — 1 to 3 minutes total
  • 5. Verify point cloud has mixed white and vivid colors on every surface
  • 6. Cover floor, ceiling, all walls and major furniture surfaces
  • 7. Press left Menu button to stop recording
  • 8. Press Y > Export Data to zip, then pull from Quest via USB at: /Quest 3/Internal Shared Storage/data/com.samusynth.OpenQuestCapture/files

Next step: When all 8 tasks are checked, close this issue and open Issue #4.
