VRX Simulators Vessel: VR Experience
In partnership with Secret Location interactive media developers & NAGRA Kudelski group, this 4-player interactive experience was designed & built for the IAAPA amusement park trade show in Miami, Florida. Vessel utilized four D-BOX motion-powered theatre seats alongside HTC Vive VR headsets all housed within a semi-enclosed platform. Vessel had integrated PC’s & controller/headset holders alongside the seats, and attention-grabbing TV screens/LED panels to draw interest to the attraction. The attraction had the ability to run promotional video loops on both the TV’s & LED panels when not displaying live gameplay footage.
I was the lead designer, manufacturing coordinator, and project manager for the course of the project, and the team was given just 10 weeks to go from a concept render for Vessel to the completed attraction.
Starting with the below photoshop render via Secret Location, the final product was designed and built within 10 weeks. The attraction made it to the venue to be completely installed & ran without fault for the duration of IAAPA, and there was significant interest in the attraction from numerous entertainment companies at the trade show.
