Room Categorization 

Efficient room categorization is key for professionals in light planning industries. With Metaroom platform, achieving this distinction in your multiroom 3D model is an easy process.

There are two ways how to categorize rooms in multiroom scanning: 

1. You shouldn’t worry about manual room segmentation if you use Metaroom Scan App version 3.0.0 or a later one. All rooms in the multiroom 3D model will be automatically detected, and you can see them in the Model Tree on the left sidebar.  You can click on the room to rename it, select utilization type, or add a note. You can select a room from the Model Tree for quick export to Relux format. 

2. If you need to categorize or segment rooms in a multiroom 3D model that was scanned with the previous Metaroom® App version (before version 3.0.0), you can do it manually in Metaroom platform.  

Follow these simple steps to create room categorization for RELUX export: 

1. Navigate to Metaroom platform via https://studio.amrax.ai/ 
2. Open the 3D model of scanned space from the room list in Metaroom platform. 
3. To select walls and furniture items that you want to group into specific categories, follow the next steps: 
   • Activate selection mode, by clicking on the icon on the top of the screen. 
   • Click on room elements to select them. Selected objects will be displayed in blue. The list of selected walls and objects will appear on the right sidebar. 
   • You can also select room objects by holding SHIFT on the keyboard + the left button on your mouse and hovering over them. Selected objects will be displayed in blue. The list of selected walls and objects will appear on the right sidebar. 
4. Once you are done selecting room elements, you can name your room (e.g., “bathroom”) in the field “Group Name” and click the button “Create New Group”.  
5. Once you’ve marked different room categories, you can see them in the left sidebar under Model Tree.  
6. You can also add Utilization Type to the selected rooms by clicking on the room name and selecting the type of utilization from the drop-down list. 
7. To export the room with all the added information, click on the check box next to the room name in Model Tree. Then, navigate to the right sidebar to click the “Relux Export” button. 
8. Your selected room will be ready for downloading from the main menu “Export” tab.
