The Virtual Tour Process
By partnering with Real Tour Vision,
who services over sixty
thousand real estate agents world wide and over 1500
virtual tour providers in their network, we know what
services and functionality are needed on a local or
national level to promote your virtual tour. |
What we do?
What we do at
A‑Perspective
is take the newest technology, combine it with expertise,
perfectionism and a little magic to create a whole new
visual world for you the business owner and your customers.
To put it simply, we create virtual tours - panoramic images
that the viewer enters from the inside out. You're not
just looking at the master bedroom in a grand hotel; you are
in that room - exploring every nook and cranny from every
point of view. The difference between the conventional
static image on a web site and an
A‑Perspective
virtual tour image is the difference between passive
observance and being there.

How do we do it?
With the best technology available to
us. First there is the hardware. We use
state-of-the-art
 digital cameras, lenses, and professional tripods
with panoramic tripod heads. Next there is the
software, which is a
panoramic stitching
program which
allows us to create high-quality panoramas
from a set of overlapping digital images. Some
Photoshop enhancements, then everything comes together in a
completed virtual tour. Click on the photos for a
better look at the equipment we use. |
What's in it for you - the customer?
This is simple. You get to take your web site to the next technological level
without
investing a fortune. We can make you look state-of-the-art
without draining your cash reserves. Remember it's 2009 - time for a web site makeover
to look current and on top of the world of technology. We pride ourselves
on
making the most perfect image possible - our images are seamless, creating a sense of magical
perfection on the part of the viewer. |
What next? How does this all happen?
First we schedule an appointment to discuss exactly what your needs
are for your tour. Then we schedule a date for us shoot images
of your property. Once
the photographs are shot, the images are processed and uploaded to our
virtual tour servers, where we customize each tour to precisely fit your
needs.
You then
work with your webmaster to add a link to the tour on your website, integrating
the tour and images to your site. You can put that link into your
print adds also. |
