With each new advancement in technology and access to information on the web the possibilities for expanding recruitment and access to a campus increases. In fact, the 3D Virtual Campus Tours developed by Designing Digitally, Inc. are fully compatible with all web browsers on the market today along with Android devices. Of course the virtual campus is also accessible by PCs and Macs making our 3D tours the most accessible anywhere.

One of the most unique aspects of the virtual online campus tours offered by Designing Digitally, Inc. is the ability for the admissions reps and the prospective students to communicate directly. This is possible through a voice chat and text chat system that will work on your computer. All communication is in real time, allowing the admissions reps, tour guides or staff to speak directly with students and their families in getting answers to questions. It also provides information to the admissions reps in real time about the student's interests and specific areas of the tour that can be highlighted based on the student's needs and interests.

This technology, which is cutting edge, can also be very useful in allowing students on a variety of types of devices to connect to the tour, to each other and to the admissions representatives. Since the tour is designed to be used on a variety of different platforms everyone can have the same experience without the need to have different users log on to different options on the system. Everything is handled from one easy log in screen making it very simple for anyone to access the tour at any time. Other systems may require different users to log into different screens based on the operating system they are using. Not only is this confusing to users but it typically leads to frustration for users, something we have addressed in our 3D Virtual Campus Tours.

The other terrific and very user friendly aspect of the 3D Virtual Campus Tours developed by our professional staff is that they are definitely set up with fun and a bit of competition in mind. Prospective students taking the 3D campus tour on the web or on a tablet will be able to play trivia and try their luck at various skill type games to earn points. These points can then be used to outfit their avatar with different sports and school themed clothing, giving a true collegiate spirit to the virtual tour that simply can't occur with a standard video tour and chat session.

The multiple user experience on different devices, all fully compatible and fully interactive, will definitely set your 3D virtual campus tour head and shoulders above the others out there. Students will definitely enjoy spending time on the tour since they can talk real time to staff as well as other students while they are taking the virtual tour. The games and fun activities scattered throughout the tour also helps to make the tour unique and different, focusing on all the aspects of the campus that appeal to new students and their parents.
