The Brief
Our tour seamlessly combines aerial and ground-level imagery, complemented by a breadcrumb menu, facilitating a smooth navigation experience while helping users keep tabs on the areas they’ve visited. To enrich the tour, we’ve incorporated extra hotspots providing valuable information and details about facilities, as well as assistance and support services. Through our focus groups, we’ve learned that featuring individuals in the photographs fosters stronger connections and empathy with potential students.
Furthermore, we’ve gone the extra mile by creating a virtual reality headset experience for use at fayres, events, and expos. This guided and immersive encounter serves as an exceptional method to capture students’ attention and leave them with a memorable and inspiring perspective of the campus.
We offer the education industry a multitude of options and unique fully customisable features to meet each and every requirement.
