A revolutionary way to communicate with your potential buyers!

A virtual meeting room on top of a 360º tour, this feature can be best described as a marriage between a video call and 360º tour. Use your standard virtual tour on your website and allow your Viewer to dial-in and have you talk and guide them through the virtual tour. They can look around on their own or follow your screen to have you point out details and give a personal (sales) presentation. They can also request to have their screens be mimicked on your and everybody else’s screen to ask questions on specific parts of the tour.

Virtual field-trips, 3DVista classrooms, live stream “showings” with a personal touch, or a proper sales presentation put into context…

To add a more immersive experience for your users and to set yourself apart, we can provide professional narration using professional Voice Over talent, or we can record you and let your visitors HEAR what you have to say about anything in the tour.

Each photo is color corrected and properly adjusted for exposure to give the closest representation of the actual environment.

In addition, photos are edited to remove imperfections, marks on the wall,  etc.

Panoramic Photos are specialized photos that are taken and capture a scene in all directions — 360º (degrees) around and top to bottom.

These are processed and used in a way to allow the viewer to “look around” the environment as if they were standing right there.

A 360º scenery, but in movement! Just as with panoramas, you can place hotspots in your 360º videos to explain or highlight things in the scene. Those things are in movement? No problem – 360º video hotspots can be dynamic so as to move, appear, disappear and change in size with the object.

Hotspots are the essence of a virtual tour. They allow your audience to click on objects and discover information and details inside the scene.

The actions you can assign to a hotspot are many: Open a pop-up detail image, a 3D model, open a purchase window, a multifaceted info window, a website, download a file or play audio, video (360º video and normal video).

These can include:

  • High resolution photos that show a higher resolution 2D photo without panoramic distortion.
  • Information Cards allow you to show additional information that will appear when the user clicks on a hotspot. Cards can be composed of:
    • Video from You Tube, Vimeo or another video provider. 360 videos as well.
    • Text and more information
    • Hyperlinks to anywhere
    • Maps from Google Maps, Bing or Open Street Maps
    • Media Player from Soundcloud or other music services
    • Social Media posts from Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, etc.
    • Street view panorama from Google Maps
    • Weather widgets from Weather.com and others
    • 3D Object (Sketchfab)
    • 3D Space from Matterport
    • Reservation widget from OpenTable
    • Interactive Demo from Codepen

With over 2 Billion monthly users, Google is the most popular website on the internet, it’s an amazing marketing tool for your virtual tour.

We can professionally create a Google Street View and have it published live on Google Maps in about 24 hours.

Traditional aerial photos and video shot from am FAA licensed and insured drone and professional pilot. Show areas that your customers typically might not be able to view.

 

Watch video on Youtube

Located at the bottom of the view, typically where the camera tripod is removed, you can leave empty or place your own graphic or logo if provided.

A less expensive alternative to traditional Drone use for aerial imagery.  In this case we use a static pole that can reach over 3 stories high without the need for additional FAA considerations.

Place maps or floor plans for orientation on top of your virtual tours. These can be equipped with hotspots, too, so that your audience can jump from room to room or even from floor to floor more quickly. A radar tool indicates at all times in which direction the user is currently looking. 

Unlike the “Dollhouse” version from Matterport that looks tattered, this is more a professional version that is even printable.

A 180° 3D Photo and Video is like actually being there.

Using a VR Headset, the viewer can see everything in front of the camera in full stereoscopic 3D for the most immersive tour experience.

 

A 360 video walkthrough looks and works just like a photo tour, but is a video instead that includes narration and even a “Guide” or “Host”. This is just like your visitor having a personal tour.

 

We can put you right into the action. Our approach to 360 photography sets us apart from our competition, and more importantly puts your viewer right in the action as if he/she was right there. We make you feel like you are “experiencing what happens in the space”, not just “looking at it”.

You can provide your own models/talent or we can recruit for you.

Why is this an additional cost? Typically setting up a lifestyle shoot takes more time in pre planning, negotiating with models/talent and directing while on location.

Imagine you could click on a person inside a panorama to make them start moving and talking. That’s what an animated panorama is. Less heavy than entire 360º videos but more alive than still panoramas, animated panoramas are the ultimate way of informing your audience. As opposed to popping up an info window, the element itself, be it a person or – say a production line, starts moving inside the panorama when being clicked, to explain or demonstrate from within. Or you could simply make a fireplace light up or have the pot on the oven start steaming to create an ambience.

Pepper your tours with little goodies to be discovered.

An EMMY-Nominated Studio, we can provide a full range of 360 or traditional video production from script to screen.

Tours are VR compatible, which means they can be seen in “standard 360º” and in Virtual Reality. The simple push of a button will let your audience switch from one mode to the other.

A unique, smooth “flight” througah the interior of a property without the use of an actual flying drone. Using specialized drone-style cameras mounted on gimbal-stabilized mounts, we can literally “Fly” around a property without any of the hazards associated with indoor drone usage. This give quite an unforgettable video!

Add audio to your tours. These could include music, pre-recorded voice or sound effects.
