hisense
virtual penalty kick
fifa world cup '25

Featured during FIFA World Cup ‘25 and played by 1,351 attendees.

Created a Virtual Penalty Kick game in Unity, using the Azure Kinect camera. Users try to score as many penalty kicks as possible against a Hisense branded virtual goalie.

Users we encouraged to pre-register using the provided registration QR code. When their turn arrived, they scanned their unique user QR code to start the game. A persistent leaderboard kept track of top scorers.

chubb us open '23

This game was active every day of US Open ‘23 and was engaged in over 3,500 play sessions.

Partnering with Creative Artists Association, our challenge was to engage attendees in between sets while positioning CHUBB as a fun, tech-savvy insurance company.

Users were given a miniature tennis racket of our design and fabrication with which to play a 30-second round of tennis target practice.

Motion sensors within the handle of the racket allowed user to perform any style of swing, which was mirrored by their in-game avatar. A successful hit at the correct angle resulted in smashing targets quickly in pursuit of the highest score.

colorado rockies
home run challenge

We engineered a sensor-laden baseball bat to translate a player’s swings in 3D space and accurately communicate their attempts within the game.

The Colorado Rockies were looking for ways to keep fans entertained between innings and encourage them to pay $5 to use their designated Fan Zone area. We devised and executed a video game version of baseball’s historic Home Run Derby.

After each successful hit, an in-game camera followed the ball, zooming into the jumbotron to show the player’s form and recording their best score to the Daily Top 10 leaderboard if they deemed worthy.

columbus blue jackets
fan zone

The CBJ Fan Zone is a showcase of interactive hockey experiences worth over $1.2M and played by over 21,696 fans.

These experiences include: Pose With A Pro where patrons take selfies with the teams’ players, Skill Shot Challenge where users hit motion-tracked balls to score against a virtual goalie and Goalie Challenge where users attempt to stop physical pucks.

sprite dj

Sprite took this experience on the road for a year, updating the in-game bottles' labels as new flavors were released.

Partnering with experiential agency Red Moon Marketing, we were awarded the opportunity to create a fun engagement showcasing Sprite's new flavors of 2024 while simultaneously celebrating the world of hip-hop music and dj culture.

Settling on a collection of beats and musical sounds, we created a digital mixing board complete with scratching turntables. Users tap Sprite bottles to turn tracks of music on and off, creating unique compositions. Under the hood, our magic sauce in crafting the tracks to always stay in time with each other guaranteed a pleasing tune for every user.

army-navy game
qb qualification challenge

This toured the Military Academies leading into Army/Navy game at Foxboro, averaging over 300 users per event.

Users had 45-seconds to throw footballs at impact-sensing targets, controlling the locomotion of their team's avatar as it ran from one end zone to the other. Created in Unity, this game featured 2D and 3D elements made to mimic an 8-bit graphic video game on a CRT television.

miami dolphins
zach thomas ar

This activation got 1,640 uses during the Miami Dolphins vs Carolina Panthers game at Hard Rock Stadium.

Created this immersive fan experience for the Zach Thomas Hall of Fame Induction Ceremony. Throughout the game, fans were able to trigger this web AR experience using their phone and view a 3D modeled Zach Thomas explode through the midfield logo along with his career statistics.

tennessee titans
ar mural

Collaborated with the Tennessee Titans to bring fans this augmented reality enhanced mural, “Tennessee Tough”.

The Titans wanted to create an experience that engaged both fans and Tennesseans outside the venue, so we came up with an interactive AR Mural that combined creativity, art, technology and sports. When viewed through a phone, the mural created by Nashville-local muralist MOBE, comes alive with an animated Titans player, quotes from significant Tennessee figures (John Lewis, Tennessee Williams, Wilma Rudolph) and the names of all 95 counties in Tennessee.

bobble buddy ar
houston dynamo & dash

Built a web AR experience on the 8th Wall platform.

This turned users into virtual bobblehead figures, sticking their face to their bobble buddy's body and dressing them in different uniforms and headgear. Once a figurine is created, users place them in the real world, trigger various soccer animations and capture the moment in a photo or video.

synq
content management

Created a content management system dubbed Synq which services many colleges including Centre, Columbia, Cornell & Stanford.

In order to showcase each college's sport teams accordingly and act as an enticing recruitment tool for their athletic department, Synq was built using the Django framework. This gave design flexibility and speed when making updates. Every installation was navigated via wall-mounted touch-screens.

gogo squeez
canada soccer
penalty kick

Created a Virtual Penalty Kick game in Unreal.

Using the Zed 2i camera for body tracking, users try to score as many penalty kicks as possible against a GoGo Squeez branded virtual goalie.

capital one
field goal kick

This got 1,433 plays over 10 activation days.

Created a digital field goal kick game using Zed 2i camera for body-tracking. Users timed an arcing arrow showing them the trajectory of their kick in order to score as many point as possible within a set number of attempts. Each round moved the ball further away from the goal, increasing difficulty.

los angeles clippers
bucket blitz

Created a 3-point shootout basketball video game using Azure Kinect sensor. The Kinect tracked a player's arms, detecting when a ball was grabbed and a 3-pointer was attempted.

aflac
gap basketball

This was played by 2,735 attendees over 3 days.

Created a basketball passing game that utilized a real basketball, large LED panel displays and impact sensors.

philadelphia flyers
tabletop hockey

Created a digital version of the classic air-hockey game for the Philadelphia Flyers. Players manipulate strikers to slam the puck while standing at either end of a table with a built-in touchscreen. Sliding physics makes the pucks's travel speed feel realistic.
