12.5- & 21-metre domes
We created a Shared VR cycling experience as part of a UK-wide programme of Sky Ride events to promote British cycling.
Two Igloos were used by Sky as entertainment spaces at the Sky Ride cycling events.
A 21-metre dome was erected in London on Horse Guards’ Parade and, one week later, a 12.5-metre dome was placed in Cannon Hill Park Birmingham.
The content was produced in-house by Sky, using high-definition 3D film to give the audience a truly immersive 360° experience.
Igloo Control
Used for controlling most aspects of the Igloo system, like triggering content, controlling playback and switching between content types.
Igloo Remote
An application that controls the Igloo wirelessly over a dedicated Wi-Fi network. Easily control different functions from tabs across the top of the app.
Igloo Warper
Back-end software that seamlessly blends all content from the multiple projectors in the Igloo. Corrects geometry and colour for an immersive experience.
