Integration of interactive 3D content into marketing strategies is a new trend for non-gaming brands. The opportunities presented by 3D virtual content are extensive. They can be implemented in fields like fashion, real estate, tourism, and education.
By developing virtual items, interactive product configurators, and AR/VR experiences, brands can differentiate themselves from competitors and offer customers unforgettable experiences. Virtual 3D models allow customers to interact with products in real time, viewing them from all angles. This increases confidence in the buying process and leads to higher engagement, with 3D content on websites driving up to 400% more engagement than static images.
According to Wunderman Thompson Intelligence, 65% of Gen Z individuals preferred a world where brands prioritize evoking an emotional response and creating unforgettable experiences.
