Frequently asked questions
Can you view 3D models in VR?
Yes. Visiofy spaces can be viewed in virtual reality using compatible VR headsets. Once a 3D model has been converted into a Visiofy virtual space, users can explore it immersively, walk through rooms, and experience the design at full scale. This makes it easier for homebuyers and stakeholders to understand layouts, room sizes, and the overall feel of a property before it is built.For the best experience, we recommend usingHere is where the accordion title goes
