Audi
The Audi A3 Virtual Theater Experience offered a stunning 360° projection and 3D mapping audiovisual performance that took both Madrid and Barcelona by storm. Designed and manufactured by Pacific Domes, USA, the sleek futuristic dome featured a sophisticated negative pressure system that eliminates the metal structure from view and creates a spectacular seamless domed theater screen. Opening the show in pitch blackness, the rings of the Audi logo lit up, one by one, tailed by millions of light cubes adorning the entire stage; immediately followed by virtual moving lights that outlined the lustrous Audi A3 Sportback. The panel onto which the Sportback silhouette was projected was slowly withdrawn, transforming the stage from virtual to reality, revealing the new Audi A3 Sportback. The engine fired up and the car spun around to face the audience; at which point the parking lights were turned on to create the idea of driving forward through an abstract world of lines, spirals and tunnels projected onto the stage. Once the Audi A3 Sportback emerged from the tunnel, the audience found themselves driving through Madrid and Barcelona through virtual pre-recorded 360° images projected onto the domed screen, that were then reflected onto the car, giving an dramatic virtual driving experience to Audi’s audiences.See the video here:
Jaguar
Jaguar Motors engaged Pacific Domes to create a huge 50ft domed ‘snow globe’ to launch their all-terrain vehicle in New York. The glossy translucent dome cover allowed visitors to view Jaguar’s new product line from outside while delighting in the simulated falling snow, while ice-skating inside the winter wonderland. A true landmark of modern geo-engineering, this eye catching event was dubbed “Chill NY”. The ‘snow globe’ featured an ice-skating rink to the public.
Mercedes
Hosting an elaborate Mercedes corporate event, three sleek zen-like geodomes bridged together to light up downtown Hong Kong. The elegantly decorated domes were a stunning complement that showcased the Mercedes signature line.
Nissan
This 36ft blackout vinyl dome was erected by Nissan at the entrance of the newly built TBS (Tokyo Broadcast System) skyscraper in Tokyo, Japan, where its futuristic zen-like appearance attracted much attention. Inside was an exclusive showroom featuring Nissan’s new crossover SUV, a redesigned version of the Murano. The Nissan Murano made one of its first official appearances at ‘Akasaka Art Flower’, an event that transforms one of Tokyo’s central business districts into a museum for a few weeks each fall. Akasaka is slated to become Tokyo’s new cultural center and is host to numerous exhibits and creative art projects. Domes offer spacious environments with open truss spans that maximize potential use of vehicle showrooms. The patented blackout cover creates a unique immersive consumer experience to optimize your image and brand.
