Providing our clients with bespoke entertainment for their events is our passion and we are always excited when we are asked to provide something a little different like the Scotland 360° Virtual Reality experience!
We received one such request recently to provide a variety of entertainment at an evening reception for 1200 technology-focused, mostly male, international delegates of the Linux Foundation.
You can see a preview of the night and what clients said about the experience here.
What entertains the IT crowd?
We offered them the chance to tour some of the amazing sights of Scotland from the comfort of a chair via Virtual Reality.
Using Oculus Go VR headsets, allowed the participants to immerse themselves totally in an amazing adventure and sightseeing tour of Scotland. They got the chance to stand with their feet in the sea on the Isle of Harris, take a boat trip, visit the Talisker Distillery, watch the making of Tweed on a pedal loom and then off to locations from Harry Potter, the Kilmartin Standing Stones and finishing at the Edinburgh Beltane Fire Festival.
We managed to offer 400 of the guests, over a period of just over 2 hours, the chance to enjoy the scenery of Scotland and then “meet the maker” of the footage to gain an insight into the 360 VR technology and more details on the where!
To further welcome the guests to Scotland and immerse them even further into the Scottish experience we had bagpipers at the door and Scottish Virtual Reality Highland Dancers doing their amazing dance routines in show spots!
Tartanium were on hand to provide the background music for the networking and a flavour of some of the toe-tapping music, unique to Scotland, in the show spots performed to showcase that music.
