First name * First and last name* Email address* Subscribe Our solution - your added value No extra work Inspect and understand plans Experience 3D plans intuitively and without prior knowledge directly in virtual reality at the touch of a button irrespective of the CAD program (ArchiCAD, Vectorworks, Revit, Solibri, Cinema4D, etc.) you use. Moving your location or the location of the objects allows you to view the objects from all angles. No installations Browser-based and in the cloud HEGIAS is independent of software and hardware. All you need is an internet browser. This way, all your real estate projects are always up to date and available everywhere. Fewer misunderstandings Inspect planned properties jointly Inspect and discuss your real estate projects together with all stakeholders without having to visualize anything. Everyone sees and understands the same things. Lower costs High added value at lower cost With the automated solution from HEGIAS you can make dynamic use of your existing data. You can work both faster and up to 100 times more economically than with static models, beauty renderings and even sample constructions. We understand BIM Straight into VR with IFCs Use the entire information from building information modeling (BIM). Load your IFC directly into HEGIAS VR for a virtual, interactive inspection. Share your projects in VR for decentralized collaboration meetings. Fewer resources used Plan, build and market more sustainably HEGIAS not only renders building prototypes unnecessary, it also cuts down on travel. That’s because all stakeholders can take part in inspections and collaboration meetings virtually without the need to actually go anywhere. As a result, tons of CO2 can be avoided every year in Switzerland alone. And fewer misunderstandings means fewer changes to the finished structure, which further reduces the amount of travel, transport and construction materials required. If you consider the fact that the cement industry produces much more CO2 than air travel, the savings are substantial. And with HEGIAS, you’ll also be prepared in the future in the event of another pandemic like Covid-19 (coronavirus). Faster project development With HEGIAS your projects are available in VR at the touch of a button. Your team then develops the prototyping and convenes decentrally for BIM collaboration meetings – all directly and efficiently in VR. Gain security With HEGIAS, you can be certain that the correct planning will be carried out, as all decision-makers see and inspect the result. Flexibility You will never be able to adjust more colors, materials and sizes as flexibly and quickly in reality. HEGIAS offers you the option of trying everything out virtually. Enhance quality & convince Once you’ve experienced the high-end quality of HEGIAS, you’ll never build, buy, furnish or sell anything again without VR. With this solution you’ll win over all decision-makers. Greater satisfaction Non-experts can also see and experience through immersion what is planned without any misunderstandings. Consequently, wishes are communicated much more clearly and customized projects are drawn up. Low costs and high sustainability You save valuable and expensive resources by efficiently testing options in VR and avoiding the need for anyone to travel to meetings.
