The travel industry (packaged trours) say it will replace catalouges. Sounds plausible for me and as far as I heared there are a few pilots going on.

- acchow 10y agoGreat application. Will also replace pictures in real estate listings I suppose.
- cableshaft 10y agoI just got done apartment hunting recently, and there's walkable virtual tours of just about every apartment, at least in my region on apartments.com. Basically a bunch of 360 panoramic shots with spaces you can click on the ground to traverse to the next spot that gives you another view, and it fades between the two, kind of like moving down the street in Street View with Google Maps. It did a pretty damn good job of giving you a feel for the apartment (we toured many of them afterwards). Obviously actual VR would be better, but what they've got now is pretty darn good already, and definitely a lot better than pictures. That being said, I think most home listings still rely on low-res still pictures, which is a shame.
