Question 1

What video formats can I upload for 3D reconstruction?

Accepted Answer

Upload MP4, MOV, AVI, MKV, or WebM video files for reconstruction.

Question 2

Does OpenStrate require a LiDAR or depth camera?

Accepted Answer

No. Reconstruction is designed to work from standard monocular video—phone, drone, dashcam, or RTSP streams—without specialized depth hardware.

Question 3

What outputs does OpenStrate produce?

Accepted Answer

Typical outputs include dense point clouds, meshes in GLB/GLTF, PLY, and workflows compatible with progressive streaming and 3D Gaussian splatting-style previews, plus a browser viewer for sharing results.

Question 4

Is there an API for reconstruction?

Accepted Answer

Yes. OpenStrate provides HTTP APIs for upload, job status, and artifacts. Public documentation for agents includes Markdown at https://openstrate.com/openstrate-reconstruction-api.md, OpenAPI 3 YAML at https://openstrate.com/openstrate-reconstruction-api.openapi.yaml, and human-readable HTML at https://openstrate.com/reconstruction-api/

Question 5

Can I use drone or phone footage for volumetric 3D?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Walk-around or orbit capture from smartphones and aerial video from drones are common inputs for volumetric reconstruction and digital-twin-style meshes.

Question 6

How do I embed the 3D viewer on my website?

Accepted Answer

Use the embed and iframe integration guide at https://openstrate.com/spatialembedding/ for viewer URLs, permissions, and visibility hooks.

OpenStrate — Neural machine perception for extracting 3D spatial intelligence, volumetric point clouds, and navigable GLB environments directly from 2D video.
