Case Study: Santa Clara University creates immersive virtual campus tours with Matterport

Santa Clara University creates immersive campus tours for 23,000 students with Matterport

Santa Clara University needed a more personalized and immersive way to showcase its campus to prospective students, many of whom could not visit in person due to distance or financial constraints. They partnered with Matterport to address the limitations of generic virtual tours by creating digital twins that could bring the campus to life.

Matterport provided the technology, including the Pro 3 camera and platform, to capture and build interactive 3D tours narrated by current students. Using Matterport's digital twins and a third-party partner for enhanced media, the university created immersive tours that helped prospective students visualize campus life. The beta tests received enthusiastic feedback, and the university aims to reach 23,000 unique students, with a focus on serving underrepresented and first-generation applicants.
