Matterport 3D visualizations of hotel rooms or public spaces such as the SPA or the lobby of a property are now distributed via the Open Content Link of the hotels.
In the GIATA DRIVE Hotelier Frontend under the Edit Property tab, the hotelier now finds a new section called "Rich Media". In this section, the so-called Digital Twins can be added just as any other fact. The hotelier must have a contract with a Matterport service partner like Liquid Ambient that will provide the URLs to the corresponding 3D visualizations hosted on the Matterport servers.
Rich Media sections are available on property level as seen above as well as on room level as shown here:
Once added the Digital Twins will be distributed via the Open Content Link:
Content consumers like OTAs or tour operators can implement these 3D visualizations as links or directly embed them on their websites.
They will give the guest a much more immersive experience of the hotel and the rooms than standard images. In contrast to 360° images, Digital Twins allow the guest to virtually walk through the rooms, the lobby, or other facilities of the hotel including the outdoor areas. In addition, a customized path through each 3D model can be defined which allows the publishing of an animation that automatically walks the guest through a room.
