Overview

Upload your SketchUp (.skp) 3D model to SENTIO VR and experience it in Virtual Reality on Meta Quest. There are two ways to upload your SketchUp model:

• Option 1: Web Upload — Upload your .skp file directly through the SENTIO VR web portal
• Option 2: SketchUp Plugin — Export your model from within SketchUp using the SENTIO VR plugin

Note: SketchUp scenes are available in VR only when uploading via the plugin (Option 2). If you need scene navigation in your VR experience, use the plugin method.**

Option 1: Upload via Web Portal

1. Log in to your SENTIO VR account at Login.
2. Navigate to Projects.
3. Select 3D Walkthroughs.
4. Click Upload Model and select your .skp file from your computer.
5. Wait for the upload and processing to complete.
6. Once processed, you'll receive a 6-digit access code to view your model in VR using the SENTIO VR app on Meta Quest.

Option 2: Upload via SketchUp Plugin

The SENTIO VR plugin lets you export your model directly from SketchUp, with support for scene selection so you can navigate between views in VR.
