Introduction
Imagine a future where your home knows what you need before you even have to ask. That’s the power of visual AI. This advanced technology is already being used in many ways to revolutionize the home lifestyle industry. Artificial Intelligence can be used to create a voice assistant that can recognize faces and voices, as well as objects and scenes. This means that your assistant will be able to understand your preferences and needs and provide customized recommendations for products and services. In addition, visual AI can be used to create an immersive shopping experience.
As the world progresses, more and more aspects of our lives are moving online. Banking, shopping, communication – it’s all happening in the digital sphere. So why should the home industry be any different?
Introducing AI to digitize the home decor industry – that allows you to shop for your favorite house decor from your computer or smartphone. With just a few clicks, you can order your red sofa, green ottoman, furniture, and much more through thousands of variety from an online virtual store that too with the feel of being inside a physical store. Sounds incredible right? Well thanks to these emerging technologies like AR, VR, MR, and XR. No more waiting on hold for customer service or fighting for a parking spot at the store.
Emerging Technologies
Shopping from home by virtually placing the furniture in your desired location with the help of AR is not a dream anymore. AR, or Augmented Reality, is a technology that allows users to superimpose digital content onto the real world. AR has become increasingly popular in recent years, thanks to the proliferation of smartphones and other devices equipped with AR capabilities. As AR continues to evolve, its potential uses are only limited by the imagination.
How about walking through the store and looking for your desired furniture piece all by yourself but doing all this while sitting at your home? Well, Virtual Reality has got this covered for you so that you never forget the first-hand feel of actually being in a store. Virtual reality technology is one of the most exciting developments in e-commerce. By transporting users into a completely realistic and interactive 3D environment, VR provides an immersive experience that is unlike anything else. And with the recent release of affordable VR headsets, such as the Oculus Rift and HTC Vive, some brands are now providing their customers with an immersive experience in their physical stores to overall increase customer involvement. With its ability to transport users to other worlds, virtual reality has the power to change the way we interact with the world around us.
With the release of mixed reality headsets, people can experience the virtual world and the real world simultaneously. This has led to a new wave of entertainment, as well as business and educational opportunities providing a more captivating experience for its users by capturing real-time pictures and thereby creating a virtual imaginary world according to their environment.
As technology has advanced, so too has the way we experience the world. With augmented reality, virtual reality, and mixed reality all becoming more commonplace, it was only a matter of time before extended reality was coined in the word. Extended reality is a blend of all three of those realities, creating a completely enticing experience. Users can choose to experience the world however they want, whether that’s through a virtual lens or by augmenting their own reality with holograms. There are endless possibilities for what you can do with extended reality. You could visit other countries without ever leaving your home, go on wild adventures without risking any harm, or even go shopping all over the world. The possibilities are truly endless.
The Acceptance Level
As with any new technology, there are always those who are quick to embrace it and those who are slower to come around. With extended reality(XR) this was no exception. The initial adopters were the gamers and tech geeks who saw the potential for a more bewitching experience. But as technology evolved and became more mainstream, it wasn’t long before businesses and marketers began to see its potential as well. At first, it was used mostly for product demonstrations and training simulations. But soon enough, we can safely assume that entire businesses will begin operating in XR. Customers will have the provision of browsing products online, making purchases, and even having their items delivered without ever having to leave their homes.
Perks of Technology
In today’s economy, it can be tough to make your retail business profitable. But by integrating these technologies, you can take your business to new heights. How can we forget its innumerable perks, like the potential of reducing costs which would otherwise be used in transporting the furniture from the warehouse to various stores spread all over the globe? Not to forget how human effort can be reduced with the introduction of these virtual stores. A lot of capital can be saved which would otherwise be used in the maintenance of a brick-and-mortar store.
Conclusion
With the right online marketing, businesses can expand by creating a virtual store and selling their products directly to customers all over the globe. This new technology is not only making it easier for people to find the perfect home décor for their taste, but it’s also helping businesses to better understand consumer preferences and trends. In a world where companies are constantly competing for customers’ attention, visual AI is giving businesses a valuable tool for engaging with consumers. The possibilities are endless, and the potential for visual AI to change the way we live is immense.
The digitized home industry is revolutionizing the way we live. With its convenience and efficiency, there’s no reason to go back to the old way of doing things. Try it today and see for yourself!
