3D Virtual Construction Sites &  Measurements in 3D

You can gather a wealth of critical information about a space and its features directly from the iGUIDE® tour. Avoid unnecessary site visits, save time and money, share information with anyone/anywhere 24/7, and limit costly human errors.

​​

iGUIDEs are 3D virtual tours and 3D LiDAR scans combined. You can walk the virtual tour and measure distances in there, and we can produce 2D CAD floor plans as well as 3D models of properties.

​Whether it's for personal use or a contractor, iGUIDE® can measure a space for several common everyday scenarios that span a broad range of industries:​​

 

  • Plan a remodel project. The iGUIDE® will be delivered within 2 business days, including all DWG and DXF files to upload to your CAD software.

  • You can have a live Zoom call where you go through the project together with suppliers or clients.

  • You can do weekly/monthly iGUIDE® tours to show the advance of a construction site.

  • Calculate quantity and cost when remodeling based on produced 3D models.

  • Measure windows and ceiling heights to estimate the replacement cost for coverings or heat loss calculations.

  • Plan cabinet layouts and determine costs for a kitchen/bathroom or any renovation.

  • Determine repair or replacement costs for carpet, hardwood, or tile flooring.

  • Plan for the placement of appliances.

  • Estimate repair costs for pipes, ducts, and wiring with digital floor plans.

  • Virtual Staging to preview the end product to a client.

  • You can show a client a remodel before and after in the same tour.

The hardware and software used allow us to scan properties in hours.

Measurements in 2D and in 3D

iGUIDE® eliminates costly mistakes by having the information available anytime and the ability to measure and re-measure as many times as necessary, until you’re confident in your calculations. Measurement accuracy for iGUIDE® will vary depending on how particular measurement points are selected by the user. Estimated uncertainty for each measurement is reported during use to aid the user in understanding the results.

This video shows how you can measure distances in the floor plan and the 3D tour.

Three measurement modes

iGUIDE® supports 3 different measurement modes. You can play around with them in the iGUIDE below. You can switch floors between pre-construction, post construction and virtually staged.

The tour allows the customer to browse around the construction site as if they were there. We can add visual tags with information about the visible objects, such as products for sale or information about circuit breakers, or even initiate a live video chat with the architect or builder to discuss further.

 

This can be accomplished with bird-eye drone shots, online videos, 360 photo tours, 360 videos, and iGUIDE® 3D Virtual Tours with integrated digital floor plans, if desired viewable with VR headsets, designed to make the visitor feel as if they are walking through the property. We supply the builder with weekly analytics of his online traffic.

Virtual Staging

We can also virtually stage a unit with a digital floor plan. These 99.6% accurate floor plans done by our iGUIDE® laser camera can be uploaded for free to an application like floorplanner.com so that the client can virtually furnish his apartment or house. He can digitally measure the unit or print a floor plan in Pdf. Please see our page about virtual staging.

The video below is a sample of a live session with integrated video conferencing that can be controlled by any participant. This could be integrated in a 3D Virtual tour for a virtual live showing. The possibilities are endless.
