“We are a full-service team designing, integrating and maintaining state-of-the-art digital immersive environments – we educate, enthrall, excite and amaze.”

We bring together exceptional theater design, advanced projection technologies, content production, user-friendly controls and advanced audio and lighting – all on a digital infrastructure. A vast technical heritage in the world of fulldome displays and virtual reality centers gives us the knowledge and understanding to help your business – that’s how we deliver crispness, vivid color and stunning contrast in our immersive spaces.

And it doesn’t have to be a dome environment – our technologies and solutions are increasingly adopted and integrated into large format displays, science center pre-show exhibits and immersive enterprise visualization environments. Immersive theater really has no limits.
