When to use this
Use this checklist before uploading images to reduce retries and improve first-pass quality.
Inputs
- Camera or phone photo in JPG/PNG.
- Stable lighting and minimal motion blur.
- Corrected perspective where possible.
Outputs
- Cleaner geometry handling.
- Better texture continuity after removals.
- More realistic furniture scale in staged results.
Steps
- Shoot at chest height and avoid extreme tilt.
- Keep vertical lines as straight as possible.
- Use even lighting; avoid blown highlights.
- Export full-size files instead of compressed chat images.
Examples
- Good: 3000px interior image with level horizon and soft daylight.
- Risky: 800px screenshot with heavy compression and mixed color temperature.
Edge cases and limitations
- Night photos with strong point lights can introduce artifacts.
- Heavy motion blur reduces object boundary quality.
