With this technology you show the future of smart city

• AR – Front Projection – Backlighting

  The combination of digital and real opens up a new space for design

  A real 3D model is an ideal anchor for the benefits of digital augmentation:

  • Augmented Reality (AR) – combine any information of the model with an AR app according to your CI.
  • Front projection – Extend a physical city model with a coloured and animated front projection.
  • Backlighting – The buildings are backlit by a display and staged with customised applications.

  Depending on the technique, different materials are suitable for the completion of the city model.

  We advise you on the perfect combination of material, technology and application so that your exhibit is not only convincing but also inspiring!
