Case: Development and Delivery of a Software-Hardware Complex — Multimedia Interactive Augmented Reality Screen “Great Patriotic War”
Location: Abinsk, Krasnodar Krai, Russia
Client: Municipal Budgetary Institution of the Abinsk District “Abinsk District Museum”
Task:
To create a multimedia complex in one of the halls of the Abinsk District Museum — an interactive augmented reality screen “Great Patriotic War,” allowing museum visitors to virtually experience key events of wartime.
Installation Workflow:
The visitor sees themselves on the screen, and the guide uses a tablet to offer a choice of six content options. The selected content is overlaid with the visitor’s image from the camera, creating an augmented reality effect. After the content finishes playing, it enters a static phase while the camera remains active. Using the tablet, the guide sends a command to take a screenshot and print a photograph. Within two minutes, the visitor receives their own image embedded in the chosen scene, augmented with the museum’s contact information, date of capture, and other relevant details. The video display duration is unlimited, meaning the visitor can remain in the selected virtual environment for as long as desired.
Solution:
-
Development and approval of the installation design project with its integration into an interactive application, implemented using 3D game engine technologies, allowing real-time exploration of the installation from the visitor’s perspective, including animated elements of interactive zones and the screen;
-
Development and creation of the installation content shot plan;
-
Development and creation of animatic content for the installation;
-
Development and creation of multimedia content for the installation (target resolution 3840×2160 pixels, frame rate 30 fps, data container with alpha channel support);
-
