Virtual Spaces

Showcasing our Virtual IT service!

During this time of physical restrictions, our digital service could greatly help you enhance your space, reach out to the public, and engage audiences by supporting your own Virtual Reality Tour. 

The specialised software uses cutting-edge True3D/VR structured-light scanning and associated cloud-processing technologies to digitally capture and reconstruct a fully navigable, immersive, and thoroughly engaging '3D Space’.  Fully explorable via a web browser using any modern desktop, laptop, tablet or mobile device or via integrated virtual reality headsets including Samsung/Oculus GearVR, Google Daydream, or Google Cardboard.

Features include an ‘Inside View’ allowing visitors to move fluidly around spaces almost as if they were really there; a proprietary ‘Dollhouse View’ for a total sense of the space; a ‘Floorplan View’ for an orthogonal, top-down perspective and ’Mattertag Posts’ anchored to points in the 3D model, facilitating the addition of supplied hyper-linkable text descriptions, photos, videos or audio files.  In short, a 3D walkthrough experience like no other!

If you would like to find out more, please contact Specialist Anthony Anderson A.Anderson@qub.ac.uk or Project Manager Elaine Reid Elaine.Reid@qub.ac.uk
