Virtual showrooms are attracting a lot of attention these days. With the rise of e-commerce and remote options for clients and consumers, many people are looking for unique virtual shopping experiences that let them engage with products before contacting sales and shopping in person. But how do you make your virtual showroom stand out from the other options available? At KiSP we believe by including virtual and augmented reality tools in our Virtual Showroom products, you can elevate your virtual showroom experience.
In this article, we will show how incorporating Virtual and Augmented Reality tools can elevate your virtual showroom experience and attract more customers.
Understanding Virtual Reality and Augmented Reality
Virtual Reality (VR) and Augmented Reality (AR) are visual storytelling technologies that are revolutionizing the way businesses engage with customers. VR creates a completely immersive experience by transporting users to a virtual environment, while AR enhances the real world by overlaying digital elements onto it. These technologies have gained popularity in recent years across many applications, and businesses are leveraging them to create unique virtual experiences for their consumers.
In virtual showrooms from KiSP, our VR and AR tools enable customers to explore products and services more engagingly and interactively. Our VR tech that is provided by our sister company Yulio allows you to explore the full showroom in VR. This can be done from a desktop, a mobile phone, or even from inside a VR headset. This includes adding hotspots in VR such as images, audio, videos and more. Your showroom viewers can jump from viewpoint to viewpoint and get an accurate sense of your products or space.
AR delivery can also be done with Yulio presentation tools. Any 3D object in your showroom can be converted into an AR object that users can view in their own physical space. This can be done with a mobile phone and is the same kind of tech being used by companies such as Amazon and Ikea. By incorporating VR and AR tools in your virtual showroom, you can create a unique and memorable experience for your customers, setting your business apart from the competition.
Benefits of Virtual Reality in a Virtual Showroom
One of the major advantages of a virtual showroom is the ability to provide customers with a lifelike and immersive experience. VR allows customers to virtually interact with products, explore details, and even simulate real-life scenarios. This level of immersion enhances customer engagement and helps them make informed purchasing decisions. It is the truest essence of “try before you buy”.
Another benefit of VR in a virtual showroom is the convenience it offers to customers. Virtual showrooms can be accessed from anywhere, eliminating the need for physical visits. This is particularly beneficial for customers unable to visit physical stores or located in remote areas. By offering a virtual showroom with VR capabilities, businesses can reach a wider audience and cater to the needs of diverse customer segments.
Our virtual showrooms can be embedded on your websites or even shared with links. It could not be easier for you to share a personalized virtual experience with customers or clients.
Benefits of Augmented Reality in a virtual showroom
Augmented Reality is another powerful tool that can enhance the virtual showroom experience. By overlaying digital elements onto the real world, AR allows customers to visualize products in their own environment. This technology enables customers to see how products would look and fit in their homes or offices before making a purchase. This can instill a better sense of confidence in your clients before they make their decision.
AR also offers the advantage of interactivity. Customers can use their smartphones or AR-enabled devices to interact with virtual objects, try different options, and customize products according to their preferences. This level of personalization and interactivity increases customer engagement and satisfaction, leading to higher conversion rates.
