Located in Vancouver, BC Canada, we provide services in 360 Video interactive Virtual Tours for the tourism and real estate markets. The 360 Video Tour is ideal to showcase the moving environment in an interactive manner. It is ideal for business marketing, promotion, tourism industry virtual reality tours such as museum and landmark tours. These 360 Videos are like having 360 interactive Virtual Tour within a playable video itself.
These tours are published on Youtube and allows maximum compatibility between users and devices.
There are 2 different ways the 360 Videos are made:
- A standard still 360 panorama images is assembled into a video, so that users can interact with the environment within a Youtube video, but there is no “people” walking about or motion within the video. An applicable use of this is Real Estate 360 Virtual Tour within a video.
- A motion 360 Video is captured, where within the video there are motion or people walking and the user can drag the image or environment around while the video is playing.
Narration, voiceover and captions can be incorporated into 360 Videos, giving a more immersive virtual realty experience – similar to just like having a tour guide introducing, talking and guiding people around a museum.
In one example, a custom built quick release tripod type pole is mounted on a bicycle to allow recording of the 360 environment using a 4K 360 camera unit.

Our 360 Virtual Tours and 360 Video Virtual Tours are compatible with YouTube that allows the use of Google Cardboard Virtual Reality Headset viewing. By using the Cardboard VR headset, realtors and users can view the environment in a more immersive way, feeling right in the middle of the action or property or the environment virtually, without actually being there physically. Users who don’t have the Google Cardboard headset can also view the 360 Tour by physically moving around the mobile device, as the video will spin responsively with the mobile device’s user’s movement.
