How to succeed in Construction Business with Augmented Reality
If you run a construction business for some period of time, you probably know how challenging is that to show to your customers how the building will look like when completed. You do your best to convey the actual size or view of the cottage because you understand, if you fail to explain how the final outcome will look like, chances are you lose your client.
That’s changing for the better, thanks to augmented reality guides — 3D architectural tours that are used to help the customer envision what a finished structure might look like, they can also become an essential part of the marketing process for both developers and architects alike. Augmented reality aims are quite simple and straightforward: give your audience the chance to explore the entire project without it being actually constructed.
Luckily, you don’t have to build a house and knock it down, in case the customer wanted his apartment to be different. You need a smart solution that would allow you and your client to see the structure in the real place where it is supposed to be built and to walk through it in real time.
Our AR team at AVRspot has been working on such a solution, called AR House.
About AR House
AR House is a combination of architectural visualization and augmented reality. The app allows architects and designers to evaluate proportions using interactive 3D modeling and simulate the natural effects of lighting in internal environments. Architectural visualizations can represent anything the client desires from the textures to complete interior furnishings.
Via augmented reality house your clients will be able to immerse themselves in their potential apartment, as well as gain a much clearer view of both the space and design.
Architecture and the design of the property involve engineers, architects, designers, and clients who see the process differently. The AR House app helps architects and designers work collaboratively, communicate ideas more efficiently, share their understanding and reach consensus.
It can be also used as a marketing tool. Today clients are becoming more and more interested in augmented reality walkthroughs, allowing them to watch a realistic spherical panorama of rooms, come closer to the objects and get a better understanding of the final outcome.
Benefits of AR House App:
- possibility to show construction whenever your client wants;
- opportunity for easy elaboration and modifications;
- possibility to change interior until it looks the way your customer wants without extra time and cost;
- it is open for development and experiments.
