Rohan Khaunte, Hon’ble Minister for Tourism, IT & EC and Printing & Stationery, Govt. of Goa inaugurates the World’s first 360-degree video interactive website integration at the Goa Pavilion’s participation in the Bolsa Turismo Lisboa 2023 edition.
The new interactive 360-degree video integration can be accessed through the existing Goa tourism website. Khaunte has integrated his two key portfolios to create a new industry benchmark that gives visitors a world-class virtual experience making this project the World’s first.
The visitors can click on a pop-up menu to a particular spot listed on the landing page or through hotspots that automatically pop up as you look around in 360 degrees. Video walkthroughs of key monuments and museums have been integrated into the experience, with arrows to move in and out.
Another highlight of the new 360 videos interactive website is the VR toggle option if viewed from a VR headset. Khaunte said, “We wanted to create a unique interactive method for the potential tourist to engage with our product offerings and hence left no stone unturned in coming up with the World’s first 360-degree interactive video experience. Besides, the product offerings have been extended to include the hinterlands, eco-tourism, and other unexplored facets of Goa.”
A total of over 180 spots have been mapped on this new website, and visitors can visually explore and shortlist the places of interest as per the type of holiday sought and the time required to tick off the spots from their bucket list.
