"I can confidently say that iGUIDE technology has given the Deft Group a competitive advantage. Even a very good adjuster who knows how to use a laser can’t match the accuracy that we get from the iGUIDE technology!"

Frequently asked questions
How do I create an iGUIDE floor plan and 3D virtual tour?
You have two options for generating an iGUIDE floor plan and 3D virtual tour. Firstly, you can connect with a nearby iGUIDE Service Operator who will capture your property for you. Alternatively, you can acquire an iGUIDE PLANIX camera system, essential for gathering the necessary data yourself.
How fast does the iGUIDE PLANIX camera system operate on-site?
With a 10-16 second scan time, the iGUIDE PLANIX camera system has arguably the fastest capture time in the 3D modeling space. A property of 3,000 sq ft can be completed in just 15 minutes.
Does the iGUIDE PLANIX camera system work on exteriors?
Exterior panoramas can be captured using the iGUIDE PLANIX camera system, but square footage for exterior areas is not provided. Additionally, iGUIDE does not align exterior panoramas; operators must do this independently.
Does the iGUIDE PLANIX camera system work on large properties? (hotels, commercial buildings, etc.)
Yes, the iGUIDE PLANIX camera system can capably handle properties of any size. In this scenario, more scan points would capture larger areas.
How does the iGUIDE PLANIX camera system perform in low light settings?
The iGUIDE PLANIX camera system performs well in low-light settings. By utilizing its HDR (High Dynamic Range), the camera system can brighten darker spaces.
How accurate are the measurements?
The iGUIDE PLANIX camera system uses time-of-flight laser scanning technology to accurately measure the distance to walls with a 1 cm degree of uncertainty within a range of 40 meters (130 ft) of distance.
