Event review - produced for Matterport Technology
Beyond real estate: the impact of Matterport’s 3D camera has surprising applications across every industry
Matterport’s recent collaborative demonstration with WeWork put the spotlight on the role 3D technology has in the real estate industry, but the event revealed much more that that. While 3D cameras are undoubtedly playing an important role in transforming how the real estate sector can utilise this technology to highlight properties more effectively to customers, the applications of Matterporting a space can lead to exciting potentials, across a spectrum of unexpected industries.
From shipping and engineering, to travel, safety and insurance, the possibilities of Matterport’s technology can open up previously unconsidered prospects, and offer more efficient, cost effective and practical solutions across a range of industries.
Adding better value to travel and hospitality sectors
Passenger service systems are integral to all major passenger carrier services, including airlines and other modes of transport. But by integrating Matterport into their model, it can add a closer look to the craft and environment on board, helping passengers choose the seat that is best suited for them, and enhancing the customer experience overall.
Guest speaker, Mohaymen Beshara, described the potential applications of Matterport within the transport sector. By scanning the environment of a plane, customers can have a more accurate idea of the space within, and choose the space that feels right for them. Similarly, for customers looking to travel by yacht or other modes of transport, a Matterport model can deliver a more realistic experience of being on-board, ultimately delivering better value by helping them make more informed and assured choices. The benefits of giving customers a closer look at an environment can go far beyond real estate, or transport. For theatres, stadiums and concert venues, a 3D model can give buyers a clear insight into the view and experience they will find at different locations, boosting customer satisfaction by ensuring they can book with confidence.
