We’re excited to introduce you to the always interesting and insightful Megan Miller. We hope you’ll enjoy our conversation with Megan below.
Megan, appreciate you joining us today. What’s been the most meaningful project you’ve worked on?
In January of 2022 my business partner and I were able to accomplish an amazing feat as well as mark a major check off our bucket list. To preface this a bit, my business partner Gordon and myself are also partners in life. We are both avid campers and love everything outdoors. We have been visiting Yosemite National park every year since our first visit in 2015; which was totally spontaneous, but that’s a story for another day. If you haven’t had a chance to visit Yosemite Valley, it is a truly magical place! Years before we ever started BirdsEye VR we loved spending time there and sharing our experiences with friends and family. Inside the park there is a very special location known as The Ahwahnee hotel, it’s a beautiful four star historic hotel embedded in the valley with gorgeous 360 degree views. The Queen of England and many U.S. Presidents have stayed there when they visit Yosemite. Since our first visit we absolutely fell in love with this Hotel and decided right then we would one stay at the Ahwahnee. Fast forward six years later, with a lot of ground work, planning and discussions, we were awarded the contract to bring the Ahwahnee hotel into 3D. In two days we were able to accomplish our biggest job to date. We can proudly say we captured 20,000 SQFT, including all specialty suites, ada compliant accommodations, private cottages as well as the entire first floor of the hotel. People from all over the world will soon be able to visit the hotel and book their room while viewing everything in 3D or a Virtual reality headset. The team at the Ahwahnee made all of this possible with their planning as well as professionalism, they were amazing to work with! Capturing history in one of our favorite places on earth was an unforgettable experience and one we will have permanently digitally documented for the world to enjoy forever. The cherry on top, Gordon worked with the incredible staff and planned an engagement proposal without me knowing, he proposed the last day of our work trip at a beautiful dinner in the dining hall, I said yes.


Great, appreciate you sharing that with us. Before we ask you to share more of your insights, can you take a moment to introduce yourself and how you got to where you are today to our readers
The BirdsEye VR team is a group of designers, engineers and industry professionals that have been creating virtual tours since early 2019. They began with Matterport cameras to create 3D models for multiple industries including event venues, real estate, architectural design and business commerce. The company has created tools tailored towards each industry’s needs giving them the best way forward in their projects goal or desire without any unnecessary hindrances.
Virtual Reality will change the way we live, work, play and develop projects. BirdsEye VR 3D virtual tours are completely compatible with most VR headsets – so you can take your designs on an incredible journey from start to finish!
BirdsEye VR has created the premier design rendering service for all industries. BirdEye VR offers RENDR, which gives clients a unique look into developing projects or spaces – starting with something as simple and straightforward like a drawing, and then moving into 3D CAD files as necessary – this allows BirdsEye VR clients to see what their completed space will look like before it’s built! BirdsEue VR architectural renders are standard in any new development because they add immersion to specialty projects by allowing users walk around them freely using virtual reality technology. Learn more about our RENDR service and how 360 degree and 3D architectural design renders will bring value to your next project.
Imagine a world where you can be anywhere at any time. Where your deepest thoughts and greatest aspirations are no longer limited by physical constraints—but instead potentially accessible from the comfort of home, work or wherever else life takes us! This is Virtual Reality (VR). In this category BirdsEye VR offers affordable packages for both developers looking to test out new ideas in development as well advertising agencies seeking immersive content across all platforms: mobile device apps & games; desktop browser-based interactive media.
Augmented Reality (AR) is the future of all digital advertising, especially with the commercially viable implementation of smart glasses. AR is currently utilized for training, events, social engagement, education and the list goes on. BirdsEye VR has created Augmented Reality additions to our virtual tours that add an extra element of engagement as well as customization.



Alright – so here’s a fun one. What do you think about NFTs?
We believe NFTs are the future for many reasons. The digital ownership as well as proof of ownership provided by the technology represents a pivotal change to many industries. Everything from attending a concert or event to owning a home or car can be transferred as well as purchased seamlessly, all while being stored digitally on the respective blockchain. Specifically for our industry it holds a very unique value preposition. By creating a digital twin of a real world place, essentially a mini metaverse, clients can now hold digital ownership and utilize that to benefit their business. An example would be The Ahwahnee hotel; which we spoke about previously. Imagine that The Ahwahnee can now live on forever in video games, new metaverses or even host meetings for companies who want to feel they are in the Yosemite Valley. It can also be utilized for education and preservation, which is what truly excites us about WEB3 technology and NFTs.


What do you think is the goal or mission that drives your creative journey?
3D and virtual reality technology has come a long way in recent years, and it shows great promise for preserving historical sites and places of cultural importance. Our goal is to use this technology to create digital archives of iconic and significant locations from all over the globe. This will not only provide a valuable resource for researchers and historians, but it will also allow people to experience these places in a completely new way. We are committed to providing accurate and detailed 3D models that capture the essence of each place, and we hope that our work will help to preserve these important locations for future generations.
