Who in Kazakhstan needs virtual 3D apartments? A qMeta startup introduces a novel approach to earning through model engineering

How do you go about purchasing something you can’t see or touch, especially if it’s a significant investment? Take, for instance, an apartment in a residential complex that hasn’t commenced construction yet. Madi Medet and his team are spearheading a qMeta startup in Kazakhstan that specializes in creating lifelike 3D models of apartment buildings for construction companies. Even during the excavation stage of a residential complex, prospective residents can utilize VR glasses to explore the property and navigate through their future apartments. What prompts the necessity for such technologies in construction companies, and in what ways can model engineering be automated? The founder of qMeta delved into these insights during an interview for the collaborative project between Digital Business and Astana Hub, titled “100 Startup Stories of Kazakhstan”.
