Igloo Core Engine is the software platform for shared immersive spaces.

It is used by astute and innovative organisations for visualisation, simulation, collaboration and engagement.

About our software

In creating Igloo Core Engine, we drew on everything we have ever learnt about immersive spaces (and, remember, we’ve been in this business for +15 years), and we combined all that functionality into one powerful, elegant, easy to use package.

Think of Igloo Core Engine like an operating system for immersive spaces. It can power any shared immersive space irrespective of size, shape, configuration, or display technology - and it's also great for any other large format displays.

Igloo Core Engine takes the complexity out of building, operating and benefiting from shared immersive spaces.

True Perspective

With Igloo Core Engine, there’s no need to configure any content in a complicated backend system.

One of the most loved features is True Perspective. It automatically applies the correct, true-to-life perspective to 3D models, so you don't have to.

Igloo Core Engine

makes it easy to create

immersive spaces

Igloo Core Engine takes the complexity out of creating immersive spaces – everything is run from a single box, any display technology is supported, and there’s no need to patch in any other technologies.  

With Igloo Core Engine, you can create and power any kind of display or visual setup, from complex CAVEs, to attention-grabbing immersive spaces, to LED walls, to flat projection – it doesn't matter what the display is, it always makes it easy. 

The Igloo Core Engine API enables clients to integrate deeply with their enterprise applications and room control technologies – so something that was once complex and complicated, is now incredibly easy to set-up and customise. 

Here's what makes Igloo Core Engine different 

Igloo Core Engine is at the very heart of our business. We believe it’s the BIG differentiator for Igloo. And there are several things that set it apart.

A specialist tool for a specific job

Igloo Core Engine is tailor-made to power immersive spaces (alternatives tend to be show control systems which can only deliver carefully choreographed linear content, or a Frankenstein’s Monster of many different technologies cobbled together). 

Easy-to-use

Igloo Core Engine has a simple interface for everyday users and an admin panel for more technical users, so everyone in your organisation will soon be comfortable operating it.  

A layer-based content system

Because it’s so flexible, Igloo Core Engine enables you to work with many different content types, in different formats, from different sources, for many different applications – which adds to the practicality of your Igloo space and can bring a quicker ROI. 

A robust, enterprise-grade solution

Igloo Core Engine bundles the full range of Igloo applications and capabilities into a single, integrated, elegant package - so it’s uber stable and fits within the corporate IT envelope 

A true-to-life 3D image

Our True Perspective technology means there is no distortion, even in the corners of a room - which is what most people might expect when they invest in an immersive space, but other solutions rarely deliver.  

Used by professionals in many different industries

Igloo Core Engine supports multiple use cases, keeps up with all the latest technologies irrespective of sector, and ensures that clients never get stranded in a technological cul de sac.
