WHAT ARE VIRTUAL TOURS
What Are Virtual Tours?
Virtual tours, also called immersive tours, are a set of photos linked together so that the viewer gets the full “walkthrough” experience. Some people think virtual tours are time-consuming and expensive to create. Our goal is to make virtual tours accessible to everyone. All C3X virtual tour tours can be viewed across devices with just a click: Mac, PC, smartphone (iOS and Android), tablet and VR headset.
PROCESS
#1
Choose Your Service & Schedule A Shoot Time
Choose Your Service And Plan That Is Right For You. People vs No People. Decide if you would like people to be photographed within the 360 degree space. This usually requires some crowd control and additional time to manage. Alternatively it may be better to choose a time that will have minimal foot traffic within your business. This will make for a far more efficient photo shoot.
#2
Prepare Your Space
Prepare your space to be photographed. Remember the photos we take will be a 360 degree view of your space, so there is nowhere to hide. Adding graphics to any visible TV screens that are within the 360 degree space can help with further branding. Business logos usually work best for this.
#3
Production – Scanning & Shooting
We shoot and scan the nominated space within the scheduled timeframe. If more spaces or areas are required, more scanning can be arranged.
#4
Processing
We will process all of the 360 degree photos, upload and moderate into the chosen predetermined Virtual Tour Platform. This can typically take within 24-72 hours depending on space.
#5
Delivery & Hosting
We will send you an email with the Virtual Tour Link and Embed Code that you can then Share and/or add to your Website. Optional deliverables such as original high resolution 360 degree photos for use on Facebook 360 or other purposes will be supplied. Your tour will remain active and hosted until subscription ends.
#6

You are able to engage C3X for additional support, updating virtual tours and other integrations with VR platforms.

Imagine being able to stand anywhere in the world and feel like you are really there. With 360 photography, you can put yourself anywhere in the world, any time, any place. Our 360 photos can be viewed on the following:
- Device Types: Smartphone, desktop & tablets

As direct sunlight interferes with the 3D scan, we recommend you scan these areas on cloudy days, before sunrise or after sunset.
You can also capture sunny outdoor areas with exterior 360° views or 2D panorama images, which can be included in your highlight reel.
We use the worlds best virtual tour cameras and technology, and adopt special techniques to try stay behind the camera when scanning.
Other people or myself are always in the 360° photos. How can I avoid this in our 360 virtual tours?
This is particularly important for the virtual tours such as for real estate, government facilities and for hotels because the photos will be more exclusive and professional. The majority of 360 degree cameras have an integrated timer. This means after pressing the shutter, you have a few seconds to move away or hide so you won’t appear in the photos.
To get the best results, scanning and shooting the space without people will help deliver better immersive virtual tours and experiences that you can use for a long time.
When we photograph virtual tours for commercial purposes, such as real estate, holiday rentals, or hotels, remember to make sure the space is well organized, cleaned and presentable – as if you were going to impress anyone while doing a real tour inspection.
Most high tech 360 ° cameras are very user friendly. In general, we use 360 cameras on tripods, walking through your spaces to scan with calculated precision.
Its important you provide us all relevant information we need to accurately quote, plan, shoot and then activate your virtual tour, including but not limited to area m2, number of rooms, number of tags, hosting plan, site address, contacts and details, floor plans (if available), access to site and confirming space is presentable and ready to shoot.
