Cool, is there a way to upload several photos of a room from different angles to fuse it all together? Is there an api?

That's a pretty well-solved problem at this point, if you want to do it yourself. You'll want some kind of NeRF tool and a way to calculate the camera poses of the photos you took. COLMAP is the tool most people use for the latter.

I'd recommend trying Instant Neural Graphics Primitives (https://github.com/NVlabs/instant-ngp) from NVIDIA. It's a couple years old, so not state-of-the-art, but it runs on just about anything and is extremely fast.

Sweet, thank you for sharing. In my case, I need an api I can call cause i only have a mac air which is essentially worthless for development lol. Also I am bootstrapping a startup and one of the features is essentially turning rooms into 3d space. I know theres matterport 3d and some others but still looking for something simple where i could pay a couple cents per api call with x amount of images. does that make sense?

That is the entire science of photogrammetry. Which has made tremendous progress in the past 10 years. There's many tools which will do it for you.
