RendezVerse, the first Metaverse-as-a-Service (MaaS) platform designed for hospitality venues, has launched RV360, a tool which transforms 360° assets into explorable social spaces within the metaverse.
RV360 aims to help hotels and hospitality venues to enter the metaverse in “photorealistic environments” and offer new ways for customers to explore their space prior to booking.
How does it work?
The new technology makes use of 360° photography, which many venues already offer on their websites through providers such as Matterport, a RendezVerse developer partner.
RV360’s algorithm processes the existing assets and builds a “metaverse-ready” version of the space, which can be viewed and navigated when wearing a VR headset and flatscreens.
Customers can explore the space prior to booking, and venue representatives can join them in the metaverse space since the area is on the RendezVerse platform, allowing multiple people to meet using avatars and audio chat.
Peter Gould, CEO, RendezVerse, commented: “We want to support hotels and events venues in offering the very best experience for their customers and make venue booking, site inspections, and events management much more effortless, less time-intensive, and more profitable.
“The metaverse is a clear solution for this, and RV360 drastically reduces the resources venues need to get started in this virtual world.”
