One kind of panoramic video that simultaneously records everything surrounding the camera is called a 360° video. Usually, many cameras or a specialized omnidirectional camera are used to create these videos. It seems highly immersive since viewers may choose which way they want to gaze. Although 360° and VR media are comparable, viewing 360° videos doesn't require any specialized equipment.

With applications in social networking, YouTube, training programs, and even other businesses, they have swept the video industry. These spherical, high-definition films provide an engaging experience that draws in viewers like never before. To take this experience to the next level, Avatour offers a comprehensive, immersive 360° picture of any area.

Remote Collaboration for On-Site Meetings

Founded in 2018 by former OZO team leaders at Nokia, Avatour is revolutionizing remote collaboration. It facilitates collaboration with on-site teams by enabling users to feel fully present in a faraway location through the combination of 360° video and real-time conversation.

With the help of the platform's proprietary software and easily accessible hardware, virtual meetings with up to 20 people may be quickly organized. In addition to increasing productivity, this combination of realistic imagery and seamless communication fosters trust, reduces costs, and promotes sustainability. Avatour is revolutionizing how we communicate and work together across distances by enabling clients, team members, and partners to virtually enter real-world venues from any location.

Avatour's Unparalleled 360° Technology and Collaborative Freedom

With the use of a technology called Avatour, virtual cooperation may be just as productive as in-person meetings. It is intended to remove the limitations of distance by providing users with a comprehensive picture of any area.

Avatour's cutting-edge 360° technology, which enables users to share a complete, real-time perspective of an area, is what makes it unique. With Avatour, each user may independently explore the whole 360° view, unlike with standard video calls where you have to rely on someone else to show you what's essential. This allows you to concentrate on the things that are important to you, which makes the encounter more interesting and intimate.

Unleashing the Power of 360° Meetings

Businesses are using Avatour as the best platform for simple and efficient teamwork. Senior Environmental Scientist Robert Warren of Black & Veatch emphasizes its revolutionary advantages: "We no longer need to gather in person, travel, or hop on a plane—and it’s more affordable too!"

On-site employees need little training to utilize Avatour because it is easy to use. You may use full Avatour equipment or inexpensive 360° gear to host sessions. Remote participants can participate via a web browser or a virtual reality headset by using the Avatour Host App. From anywhere in the globe, up to 20 participants may join a session and experience crystal-clear 4K video with seamless stabilization.

Avatour facilitates a range of remote inspection activities, such as third-party certifications, supplier audits, and quality inspections. As if they were physically there, inspectors are allowed to move about the area. In order to give participants the impression that they are truly at the site, you may also film or offer immersive site tours in real time.

Revolutionizing Remote Inspections

With its 360° view of sites and facilities, Avatour is revolutionizing remote inspections and audits—all from the comfort of your workstation. This cutting-edge solution makes site evaluations quicker and simpler than ever before by enabling teams to reliably conduct inspections without being physically present.

Businesses may eliminate costly trip expenses like airfare, lodging, and food by utilizing Avatour. Businesses often save $2,500 per person for foreign travel and $990 per person for domestic travel. Additionally, it cuts down on time lost driving to and from locations, freeing up teams to concentrate on more important tasks. Inspections are less complicated, faster, and more effective with Avatour.
