Ok so we got our 3D file for our environment, now lets do some 3D objects as well! The process is pretty similar, except for 3D objects we’ll switch to the “photo” mode instead of the LiDAR mode. The photo mode will take a bunch of different pictures and put them together to make a 3D model! In the video below you can see what the process looks like as I scan one of my prized possessions, a 1930's edition of Moby Dick illustrated by Rockwell Kent.

Then using a wallet like Phantom, click on “Add / Connect wallet, select “import private key,” then paste in our keypair from earlier. Once it’s in your wallet you will want to click on the settings icon in the bottom right, scroll down to “change network” and set it to “Devnet.” Once you do that, go back to your NFTs page and you should see it!!

## Conclusion
208 208
Polycam really introduces a whole new way of how content can be created using modern tech. You can imagine how this might be used for journalism, where instead of just looking at a photo of a story, you can view it as a 3D object with augmented reality. Someone who explores caves can share their experience as a 3D environment! Paired with Solana as a much faster and affordable layer one solution, and [Pinata](https://pinata.cloud) to deliver IPFS content quickly, the possibilities are endless!
