The Igloo 360 is a fullyimmersive, highly-engaging visualisation platform. You can step right inside your Computer-aided Design (CAD) and Business Information Modelling (BIM) data. You can get a palpable sense of how your plans will look and feel in the real world. You can take prospective customers around their future property. And you can take anyone on a virtual site visit. By bringing your architectural, engineering, and construction design concepts to life, you can improve planning processes, reduce errors, strengthen teamwork and bring a whole new dimension to your stakeholder engagement activity.
Step right inside your data With Igloo 360, you can immerse entire teams in the centre of any visualisation. With panoramic sound and vision, you can explore lifelike models. Entire teams can discuss the details. And, thanks to the flexibility of our technology, you can port any of your existing content to the Igloo platform. So, for example, you could: Take prospective clients on a virtual world tour of your most prestigious projects Run productive design and planning meetings with all the key team members Take stakeholders onsite, show them your designs, and bring them onside Enable community involvement in major new schemes or redevelopments Sell real estate off-plan, and help buyers to select their preferred design details
Typical applications With Igloo, visualisations can become more immersive, more engaging and more inspiring. You can step inside finished projects whilst they are still on the drawing board. You can easily take stakeholders to the centre of a planned development. And you can get an invaluable opportunity to check the spatial dynamics, see the sightlines and select the right materials.
Typical applications There are several ways to interact with the data and move through the flythroughs. You can also get access to the metadata that lies behind your models. And you can augment reality by blending footage with computer generated imagery. Architectural & engineering visualisations Sales & bid support Community & stakeholder engagement Property and real estate marketing Virtual site visits Asset integrity programmes CAD & BIM visualisations Big data visualisation
Business sectors We work with many different sectors, including many of the biggest names in design, engineering and construction. Architecture Engineering Construction Education Public affairs Interior design Real estate Air traffic control Energy
Business benefits Improved sales processes show exactly how your concepts will look and feel Reduced planning errors experience spatial interactions and complex dynamics Enhanced collaboration bring design and engineering teams together Increased engagement win over community and stakeholder groups
Advantages of the Igloo Of course, there are many different ways to deliver simulations. You can even choose from several immersive solutions. So what is special, or different, or better about the Igloo? For more information please follow this link to our white paper on the value of Igloo 360 technology for visualisation and simulation. Collaborative Entire teams can work together, all experiencing and responding to the same thing at the same time. Engaging Igloo is more effective and engaging than any deskbound, flat-screen or halfdome experience. It is also less isolating than a virtual reality headset. Lifelike You get a true-to-life experience. With HD sound and vision, and corner-less panoramic screens, straight walls look straight, and design details stay crisp and true. Flexible We can work with any content. Most visualisation content is Igloo-ready. And, if not, we can general adapt it to run on the Igloo Media Player. Versatile You can use the Igloo for more than visualisations. We can blend and mix different content, so Igloo is equally well-suited to simulation, presentation and training. Affordable Compared to traditional 360 simulators, an Igloo dome costs a pittance. It also comes complete with all of the necessary technology and projectors.
