A Magic Mirror for the real estate industry
NVM

Introduce NVM’s real estate agents to the latest technologies in a fun and simple way: that’s what NVM had in mind when introducing the magic mirror for real estate agents (MakelaarSpiegel).
The goal: stay ahead in innovation
NVM wants to stay innovative and wants to create awareness for new technologies among her members. By engaging in a dialog with her members via the ‘MakelaarSpiegel’, NVM is setting out her innovation strategy for the future.
The magic mirror shows the true power of today’s cognitive cloud services powered by AI. The possibilities are endless, that’s why we explore these services on a daily basis.Hayo Rubingh, Director DevOps & Innovation at Mirabeau
Together with the Dutch Association of Real Estate Brokers and Experts (NVM), we launched the magic mirror.
This application recognizes real estate agents and shows insights like age, gender, emotion and other facial features. Because the application is linked to the NVM database, the magic mirror also shows the last three objects the real estate agent has sold. The application is a fun and personal way to introduce NVM real estate agents to the latest technologies.
With a set of images (profile pictures), current cloud services like the Microsoft Azure Face API can detect faces very accurate.

NVM & Mirabeau: 15 years of partnership
Mirabeau has been NVM’s digital partner for over 15 years and has extensive experience with new technologies like face- and image recognition based on Artificial Intelligence.Other applications: BeerRecognition
For us, recognizing faces or objects wasn't enough. We wanted to combine design end technology to build the perfect human centred experience. That's why adding Augmented Reality (AR) seemed as a logical step to take. Advised by our AR expert we build an environment where somebody can step in, show their beer or soda and gets immersed with inspiration and information.
