There’s a common misunderstanding out there in the immersive technology market, and especially in the academic and research-related communities…
In today's digital age, technology continues to push the boundaries of what we once considered possible. As companies strive for more interactive and engaging experiences, the concept of immersive spaces and immersive rooms has emerged as a revolutionary approach to captivate our senses and transport us into new realms. At Igloo, we are global leaders in immersive spaces and can equip any room with our immersive technology.
At its core, an immersive space refers to a virtual or physical environment that surrounds the user, creating a sense of presence and deep engagement. An Igloo immersive room is powered by Igloo Core Engine, our software platform that can turn any space into an immersive space
Igloo Core Engine enables you to operate and use these spaces, no matter what the size, shape or configuration, leading to better decision-making, saved time and money, decreased risks, improved processes and increased efficiencies.
Immersive rooms come in all shapes and sizes, such as a traditional style meeting room, a 360-degree cylinder, an open-fronted cylinder, a CAVE, a cube, an LED display and more. Here at Igloo Vision, our immersive rooms can display a range of content types, such as 360-degree videos, images, building information models, simulation training applications and more to immerse users in different environments, shutting out the physical world. Users can be transported to a space that can replicate real-world locations or create entirely fantastical realms.
Now you know what an immersive space is, you’re probably wondering what a 360-degree immersive room can be used for and how it can revolutionise your business. There are many applications depending on your industry:
As technology continues to advance, the potential for immersive spaces is boundless. With the advent of 5G networks, the metaverse, improved display technologies, and more compact and affordable devices, the barriers to entry for immersive experiences are gradually diminishing, and we want to help you find the best immersive solution for you.
