Virtual Guided Tours

A complete virtual experience of some place can be obtained only by a virtual tour where a professional guide takes users through the virtual panorama path where tourists would really pass. At each location the guide gives an explanation as if the user is on the spot, and the panoramas automatically move demonstrating what the guide explains. The user can independently choose which guided tour to go. For navigation the user can choose the automatic control guide, a topic list, the bookmark folder of all panoramas and all the icons of virtual panoramas.

Tourist Mobile Applications

Tourist applications for mobile devices like iOS (iPhone and iPad) and Android enable presentation of all the tourist information and audio multimedia guide through touristic destination. The application is connected to the server, so when the user gets connected to the Internet, can update the data that are changed by the simple but effective CMS system. In the field, the user’s application can be used without Internet.
The information is categorized, displayed on the map and in easily reachable lists through simple and intuitive interface.
