Virtual Reality and architecture are two concepts that together offer great profitability and cost savings. The potential offered by this new technology to a sector that is gradually becoming active again, especially due to the interest of investment groups in our country, is to streamline the costs and ways of presenting architectural projects to potential clients. Virtual reality is positioned as a strategic element for the real estate and construction sector when looking for investors. The possibility of reproducing spaces with virtual glasses with Oculus Rift, Carboard or Samsung glasses offers a totally real vision of what is going to be built or bought. Offering an exact, yet impressive, technological solution to the demands of a highly demanding market that is wary of operations that do not meet its finishing or profitability objectives.
This technology has begun to be used in recent years by some museums in the world to give the possibility of giving a tour to potential customers but it has been once again the giant Google who has made known worldwide the use of this technology to millions of users with its application Google Cultural Institute. If you have made use of this marvel created by Google, know that there is the possibility of doing the same for your new construction whether it is an office, house, shopping mall or urbanization. The best of all is that it can be reproduced with virtual reality whether it is built or to be built.
Virtual Reality and Architecture:
In this image taken by Google of Egypt, if we visualize it from Google Cultural Institute we will have to move with the computer mouse or give the video tour mode option, which is slow and does not offer a sense of freedom within the scene. With virtual glasses, such as the Oculus Rift, we can move within the environment to the direction we want, deciding the angle and direction because we are virtually inside.
This purely experiential exercise proposed by Google is an example of what a small number of virtual reality research teams around the world are currently studying to offer architectural firms a tool with incredible potential to visualize virtual buildings, land and real estate subject to future construction. Two Reality is one of the most experienced companies in this field in Europe, with projects in Italy, Hong Kong and Shanghai using this virtual technology.
Its applications are extensive for this sector:
1.- Exploration of virtual scenarios built or to be built.
2.- Presentation of architectural projects to be built, sold or rented.
3.- Recreation or visualization of landscape projects.
4.- Configuration of interior design elements according to the client’s taste as a configurator.
5.- Virtual tours through recreations of landscapes or historical works.
6.- Study of structural behavior of buildings subjected to different types of stresses.
In this video optimized to be viewed in virtual glasses, we see a virtual tour in different interior spaces where the user moves freely living the experience. As an observation for the reader, the screen is divided into 2 portions due to the necessary optimization for the two lenses that incorporate the virtual glasses. As a consideration it is also worth mentioning that the quality had to be lowered in order to be reproduced on Youtube.
If you are a professional linked to the world of architecture, construction or real estate and want to know firsthand the potential that virtual glasses and virtual reality can offer to your industry and the competitive advantage they can bring you come to know our work and developments in this field. We invite you to get to know this technology first hand. Two Reality is a company with more than 6 years of experience in the development of 3D projects and virtual reality in this field.
