Seoul, South Korea (PRWEB) July 22, 2017 -- Cupix, a company that provides state-of-the-art photogrammetry software which can create 3D virtual reality content from photos in a fully automated way, announced that ZIGBANG, the #1 residential property online marketplace provider boasting 20 million users in South Korea, invested in Cupix. In addition to the equity investment, the companies also announced their intent to jointly develop and deploy true-to-life 3D virtual tours aimed at enabling ZIGBANG's users to experience properties online in the most realistic way.
"The virtual reality technology will transform the real estate industry for certain, but there will also be a series of hurdles we should overcome to facilitate the consumer adoption," said Simon Seockhoon Bae, CEO, Cupix.

Two companies are committed to delivering on the shared vision of the future."
