Minimize Errors & Miscommunications

 Using this technology, we can create accurate digital representations of a space, reducing the chances of costly mistakes during construction. The precise measurements help identify potential issues early in the process, making it easier to address any concerns before they become problems. This ensures smoother execution and fewer surprises as your project progresses 

Save Time & Reduce Travel Costs

 One of the greatest advantages of using 3D scanning technology is that it allows for fewer physical visits to the site. The scans capture detailed, accurate data in a fraction of the time it would take to manually measure or survey a space. This not only speeds up the process but also reduces travel costs, making the overall project more efficient. 

Real-Time Visualization & Collaboration

 The advent of modern 3D modeling tools is transforming the way projects are designed and executed. With the ability to create photorealistic renderings and simulate environmental factors, architects, engineers, and contractors can visualize designs in real time. This allows for better collaboration across distances, as teams can review, discuss, and make decisions based on highly accurate models, no matter where they are located. 

360-Degree Scans for Accurate Detail

 Our 3D scanner uses specialized cameras that take multiple images in a 360-degree scan around its position, capturing all the necessary details of the space. This technology provides a comprehensive view of the area, ensuring that no detail is overlooked. Whether it’s for renovations, new builds, or site analysis, these scans provide invaluable insight into the physical space. 

During Construction Scans

 One of the most powerful benefits of our 3D scanning technology is its ability to document the space before sheetrock goes up. By scanning the area early, we can capture and record the exact location of plumbing, electrical, and other hidden elements. This “before the walls go up” scan helps avoid costly and time-consuming rework, ensuring that systems are installed correctly the first time. 

Post Construction Scans

 After construction is complete, the Matterport Pro3 LiDAR scanner is used to capture a detailed, immersive 3D digital twin of the finished space. This scan creates an accurate visual and spatial record of the building as it was delivered, capturing every detail with precision. 

Realtors & Investors

Immersive 3D Virtual Tours

 Offer potential buyers a 24/7 open house experience, allowing them to walk through the property from anywhere in the world. 

Time-Saving for Agents & Buyers

 Reduces unnecessary showings by helping buyers pre-qualify properties online.

Built-In Measurement Tools

 Buyers can measure rooms, ceilings, and other features directly in the tour—great for planning furniture layouts or renovations.
