Jan 19, 2021 — Ricoh introduces RICOH360 Projects service that addresses Architecture, Engineering, and Construction (AEC) clients’ needs to efficiently create and share immersive views of construction sites.

This is in addition to its current RICOH360 Tours 360° image data services for business.

This new service provides a means of creating, annotating, and sharing immersive 360° views via a mobile app. Through the construction project lifecycle, from the planning phase up till post-construction maintenance, construction companies and designers in the AEC field can effortlessly and efficiently share 360° images captured on-site across multiple projects accessible securely from a web browser without the need for specialized software. Construction project stakeholders, including owners, project managers, forepersons, safety managers, and designers can collaborate to plan, coordinate, control and monitor projects easily from anywhere, avoiding potentially costly mistakes and reducing rework.

A single 360° image can replace up to 10 regular photos, capturing the walls, ceiling, and floor of a room by pressing a single press button. This enables teams to optimize site surveys and spot inspections efficiently and reduces the need for photo reshoots due to areas missed on prior visits.

RICOH360 Projects is changing how individuals and teams manage construction job sites using technology to create 360° immersive views instantly.
