Virtual Reality for Economic Development

Immersive Video

There is no better way to create the feeling of visiting a place without physically being there. When viewers engage with the video through VR headsets, they can look up, down, and in a full circle around themselves by turning their head or body. Immerse prospects in a virtual familiarization tour of your community, showcase available sites or engage prospective workers via a VR headset, website, smartphone, or at a trade show booth.

3D Visualization

Combine the power of 360- degree videos with 3D modeling to bring your vision for developing a specific property to life. Models help investors and site selectors envision how a site could be developed or how a community can grow. Place a virtual spec building on a greenfield site or present a vision for how a community could grow in a way that makes one feel like they are really there. Existing models may be placed into the videos or they can be created from scratch. See the example in our promo video. 

3D Facility Tours

Matterport technology gives you realistic, interactive 3D and VR models of existing facilities that feel as real as being there. Users can walk through an entire facility using their web browser, phone, or VR headset. Additional information (text, photos, videos, or links) can be added to ‘hot spots’ throughout the tour for providing additional information. This is a great solution for existing buildings for sale or lease, incubators, and coworking spaces. 

Live Virtual Meetings

Meet together with site selectors and decision-makers wherever they are in a virtual room. In your meeting, you can share 360-degree video familiarization (FAM) and site tours. VR headsets with 3D audio create a strong sense of presence that makes participants feel like they're really in the same place together.
