VR shopping: how scalable are existing solutions20696

Dear WGAN-Members,

I am looking for an exchange of thoughts regarding custom VR shopping solutions for large scale projects.

Several platforms are offering VR shopping features for Matterport digital twins (eg. Treedis, RetailVR).

They do work well for smaller projects but if you intend to digitize and customize large stores with 1000s of items the systems are not really feasible due to labor time, maintenace and long loading time.

Our approach so far is to use the virtual staging feature (we use MPSkin), overlay the area with an SVG and add a pop-up with an iFrame container that gets data by calls from an app API. Works and looks good in small scale. We now need to scale the number of clickable objects.

Is anyone aware of solutions for a large scale approach:

Bulk set up for creating multiple clickable objects in symetric environments (shopping isle, 2 by 10 meter, create 4 by 20 clickable areas), using the same flow described above.

Managing load times. We are limiting the number of clickable object per space and connect them via direct links in the Matterport model. UX is interupted by doing so.

I am looking forward to your thoughts.

Thank you and best regards,
Michael

I was also circling around this question some time ago and I came to the conclusion, that it will be better to bring the Matterport into the Shopsystem (eg Shopify) and continue from there. Typical custom code SDK job on both ends.

Another answer that I came up to is to change the platform from Matterport to 3DVista to accomplish this. Take a look at @360Creators solutions with so called SkinCMS - find more info here

The only issue here is that 3DVista's skin is not VR-compatible. If it's okay to have it without the VR-goggles, then yes 3DVista with SkinCMS is a great combo.

1000's of items, do you mean 1000's of individual products or are you referring to a few 100 individual products with different variants that make it a few 1000's for those large stores?
