Darwin VR is a project that presents 11 locations in the beautiful city of Darwin on Australia’s northern coast. First, the virtual journey begins with a coastal view of the city.
Then, users explore interactive pins on the panorama, and each pin opens a selected location with a short 360° film. Because the navigation is simple, users can move between places easily.
In addition, every location includes a 360° video that highlights its unique character. So, visitors can experience the city from a new perspective.
For example, the application allows users to explore the following places:
Finally, the 360° films place users at the centre of the action, so the experience feels realistic and immersive.
The Darwin VR project included the development of mobile applications for Android and iOS devices. In addition, a web application was created, designed mainly for viewing on computers.
The whole was prepared as a virtual walk. As the opening scene and the main menu is a 360 picture showing the city panorama. There are 11 interactive pins placed on it. Clicking on a selected pin will play the 360 video from the selected location.
In mobile apps you can watch movies in both VR and full-screen mode. Specially for these applications, cardboard goggles have been prepared, which are branded and consistent with the style of the whole project.
The applications have become a very important element used to promote the city. The goggles, on the other hand, enable users to experience virtual reality and get to know the city of Darwin in an extraordinary way.
