Overview

Description

HOVER is a tool that helps create fully interactive 3D models of any property using smartphones, which gives users the ability to measure, design, and budget their home improvement projects. The tool uses state-of-the-art technology initially developed for the US military to generate 3D maps of any property. HOVER enables users to create an interactive 3D model of a home or any other property using a few smartphone photos. These models can be further used to measure and estimate home improvement costs. Users can also use them to assess damages to the property for both insurance claims and restoration costs. By using 3D Models, contractors can assess, plan, and carry out repairs and additions without using complicated tools or clunky machinery, eliminating downtime and reducing costs. HOVER Connect is a value-added feature that enables users to integrate remote collaboration with their current processes by adjusting to the no-touch workflow. It allows users to connect with their customers via video-conference and share a 3D Model of the property that includes design features. Read more
