1. 360 Photography

This is the traditional way of doing 360 virtual tours and will produce the highest quality. We use a Sony a7r4 with Canon 8 to 15 mm lens to shoot the photos. We shoot every 90 degrees to cover the full 360 view and take several shots per angle and merge them in post processing.

For aerial 360 photos we use a DJI Mavic Pro 3.

Below are some samples

2. 3D Scanning (Matterport)

Matterport is a US company based in California. We are a reseller of their services. We use their device called Matterport Pro 2 to scan spaces and create digital twins. Matterport is best for creating indoor spaces such as condo / house model units. See samples below.

Below is a comparison of the Matterport 3D scanning to our 360 Photography service.

    3. Hybrid (360 Photography + 3D Scanning)

    This is a combination of 360 Photography and 3D Scanning. We will take photos using our high end equipment of Sony a7r4 with Canon 8 to 15 mm and do a 3D scan afterwards using a Matterport Pro 2.

    The output is similar to Matterport but with better quality photos and with better user Interface because we can customize it. Below is a sample project done using the 3 different techniques.

    Hybrid https://tours.exsight360.com/filinvest/fortune-hill/3d/tour.html

    This type of tour can only be done for smaller, contained spaces like condo units, houses, and offices. It is not recommended for big spaces like entire condominium complexes, resorts, or other expansive spaces. Below are the advantages and disadvantages.

    4. 3D Rendering

    This service is for creating 360 virtual tours of spaces that do not exist yet. the 360 images are rendered from 3D models that are either provided by the client or are created by our team from scratch based on the architectural plans from the client.

    The 3D Renders can be combined with actual 360 photos taken at ground level or 360 photos taken using a drone. See sample before and after shots.
