The way in which we face the search for a home has changed. Internet has had a lot to do with it, above all, since the proliferation of online real estate portals made an appearance. But behind these virtual shop windows, there are cutting-edge developments that are able to make us visit a home without moving from home. In the same way, the real estate and construction companies rely on innovative applications that anticipate our needs. Know these technologies from the hand of pisos.com:

5G

After 4G, the fifth generation of technologies in mobile telephony arrives. In Spain, the infrastructure that will support these networks is still under development. It will not be until 2020 when its use is standardized and the telecommunications companies have their protocols ready. Thanks to this new connectivity, the speed will reach incredible heights, something that we will notice, above all, in mobile devices. In this way, when we consult the offer of a portal or a promoter on their websites, the data will be loaded in the blink of an eye.

VR

The virtual tours are not unknown to us. Surely we have all seen in a portal an ad enriched with the classic 360 photos and videos that allow you to see the different rooms in a more detailed way. This technology helps to have a more realistic idea of ​​space. The real estate agencies save time and resources because the client, dressed in virtual reality glasses, can visit several buildings and discard those that are not worth visiting.

AR

The augmented reality is another one of the reefs that is about to explode. The point is to insert 3D objects into images in real time. In this way, in the vision of an empty room we can place different furniture and play with the decoration or know what the room will look like after a renovation. Likewise, in a site to be built it is already possible to move the complete development and walk through the pilot floor, an advantage that buyers of new construction can take advantage of.

AI

Artificial intelligence is capable of equipping machines with cognitive abilities. Robots learn thanks to the information we provide them. The data not only have a quantitative value, but also a qualitative one. In addition, they must be organized properly. The better you know us and the more sophisticated your algorithms, the more refined when suggesting a house that fits our needs. Predicting our tastes to make constructions à la carte is the logical step.

BIM

The automation of processes that until recently were assumed by people reaches the very heart of the homes we inhabit thanks to the use of this methodology, which stands for Building Information Modeling. The result will be buildings in whose conception all the agents have been involved from the beginning, from the architect to the construction manager, passing through the promoter or the interior designer, providing information to build efficient, thought-out and highly customizable constructions.
