At 360 View, we are always pushing the boundaries of immersive technology. Our latest offering, Augmented Reality (AR), brings a new dimension to your 360 virtual tours. With AR, you can now provide your visitors with an engaging on-site digital experience that blends the real and virtual worlds, offering a more interactive way to explore and navigate your space.
What is Augmented Reality?
Augmented Reality is an innovative technology that overlays digital content onto the physical world, enhancing the visitor’s experience by adding interactive elements visible through their mobile devices. Imagine your visitors not just seeing the tour on their screens but also interacting with it in real life!
Key Features of 360 View’s Augmented Reality Solutions:
- On-Site Digital Engagement: Visitors need to be on-site to experience the AR content, which creates a unique, location-specific interaction that sets your space apart.
- Easy Content Management: All digital content displayed via AR can be updated live, remotely, and easily managed by you, keeping the experience fresh and relevant.
- Innovative Indoor Wayfinder: Our AR Wayfinder is a revolutionary tool that guides visitors seamlessly through your building, ensuring they find their way effortlessly, whether navigating an exhibition, a complex office layout, or any large indoor space.
Introducing the AR Wayfinder
The AR Wayfinder offers a smart, visual guide to navigate indoor and outdoor spaces, directly through a visitor’s mobile device. By selecting locations from the virtual tour menu, users are guided in real-time, with visual cues helping them reach their destination with accuracy. This AR navigation tool is a game-changer for spaces that are large, complex, or challenging to navigate.
Possible Applications:
- AR Guides for Museums and Exhibitions: Enhance visitor engagement by providing AR-driven guidance through exhibits, adding contextual information at every step.
- Indoor Navigation for Complex Buildings: Simplify navigation in malls, airports, hospitals, or corporate offices with AR guidance that directs visitors to their desired location.
- Gamification: Add a playful element to your space with interactive experiences like Easter egg hunts or themed games, creating memorable visitor engagements.
- Facility Management Support: Use AR to guide staff through maintenance tasks, highlight safety routes, or point out key facility areas.
- Machine Maintenance and IoT Integration: Overlay AR content that shows machine maintenance steps, alerts, or real-time data, improving efficiency and safety.
- Training New Employees: Use AR to guide new team members through their work environment, making training more interactive and effective.
Four Simple Steps to Your Augmented Reality Experience
- 3D Scanning of the Space: Our team at 360 View will perform a detailed 3D scan of your space using the latest Lidar Laser Technology and HDR imaging. This process captures every detail to create a full-scale, three-dimensional model of your property.
- Content Insertion: We will insert your AR content, such as information points, interactive menus, and navigation paths, making your tour truly unique.
- AR Activation: our team will activate the AR features, ensuring all digital overlays function seamlessly within your space.
- QR Code Integration: We will provide you with a customised QR code that visitors can scan on-site to download the app and begin exploring your space in augmented reality.
How Does It Work?
- Project Meeting: We start with an initial consultation to understand your needs, answer any questions, and inspect the property. Based on your specific requirements, we’ll create a bespoke proposal tailored to your vision.
- Scanning the Space: Once you’re ready to proceed, we will schedule a scanning appointment. Our team will capture high-quality 3D data of your location, including all rooms and areas, within a few hours.
- Post-Processing: Within 24 hours of scanning, the rendering process is complete. Our team then performs detailed post-processing, adding information points, 4K photos, videos, and any additional content. The final AR-enabled tour is then configured, complete with interactive links for seamless installation.

Frequently Asked Questions
Are virtual tours accessible for vision-impaired users?
We support screen readers and keyboard navigation for accessibility. Audio descriptions can be added to tours to help visually impaired visitors understand spaces. Ask us about accessibility features.
What’s included in the 360 View standard capture package?
Standard packages include professional capture, processing, seamless stitching, cloud hosting, basic customisation, and sharing capabilities. Optional add-ons like advanced analytics, branding, or VR support increase the price.
When should I choose 360 photography over a full tour?
360 photos work for quick portfolios, product displays, or event coverage when you don’t need full navigation. If you want customers to explore your space like being there in person, a full virtual tour is more effective.
How does 360 View handle HTTPS and data security?
All tour hosting uses HTTPS encryption for secure data transmission. Customer data and tour files are protected with industry-standard security protocols and regular monitoring.
Can I add my company contact info to the tour?
Yes. You can embed contact details, phone numbers, email, and call-to-action buttons directly in the tour interface. This drives engagement and makes booking or inquiry simple.
Do employees need to consent to appear in a virtual tour?
Recommended practice is to inform staff beforehand, though faces are automatically blurred. For healthcare, finance, or security-sensitive environments, explicit consent is advisable. 360 View can guide you on requirements.
