Biganto Virtual Tours vs Google Street View

Biganto Virtual Tours helps designers, visualizers, and real estate developers turn existing 3D models into interactive tours and manage digital doubles of real estate. Its Virtoaster web interface supports tour assembly after users upload assets, with sharing by link where the plan permits. Visitors can move continuously through virtual spaces rather than jumping between fixed room views. Tours can offer clickable object details, an overhead 3D view, distance measurement, location links, and route recording and playback. Private-room sessions let guests lead or follow each other and chat. Tours support Oculus Rift, Oculus Go, HTC Vive, and mobile cardboard viewers, and can be opened in browsers or viewed offline using apps for Windows, iOS, and Android. Tutorials cover preparing and exporting 3ds Max and Unreal Engine assets. A free Trial costs nothing, allows three tours in capacity and five tours per month, and does not allow sharing after one month for new accounts. Basic starts at €29/mo; prices exclude VAT. Paid-plan tours can be shared only while the subscription is active. Plans above Basic require a legal entity and Tax ID.

Google Street View combines panoramic images to represent places virtually in Google Maps. Users can explore locations and inspect historical imagery to see changes over time. Images come from Google and contributors, and may be months or years old rather than current. People with compatible cameras can capture 360 videos and upload them through Street View Studio, which supports multiple uploads, previews, imagery statistics, and capture-route planning. Businesses can publish indoor or outdoor imagery and virtual tours for location previews. Developers can add Street View to Android, iOS, and web applications using the Maps Embed API or Maps JavaScript API. The Street View Image API supplies static panoramas, while the Publish API sends 360 photos with position, orientation, and connectivity metadata. Contributed imagery receives automatic face and license-plate blurring, with requests available for additional blurring. The service is free; Static API usage is billed per panorama and requires billing plus an API key or OAuth token.
