    How the Studio Z team worked with Cobra Golf to help launch the new Darkspeed range... The Experience The tagline "out of this world speed" inspired us to take users on a journey like no other. The adventure begins right outside the store, where a satellite image zooms out from the user's location, travelling through the clouds and into space, ultimately landing on Darkspeed world—a fully interactive 3D environment where consumers can explore the new range. The Design To immediately captivate users, we created a vertical scrolling interaction that teases the new Darkspeed golf driver and its key features. The experience transitions from real-time satellite imagery to a 360° panorama of the Salt Flats-inspired Darkspeed world, recreated in Unreal Engine. Users can interact with 3D product models, exploring different angles and components. The Technology Built using HTML & WebGL, with custom 3D rendering and real-time map tiles, the experience leverages gyro-tracking for 360° exploration and multitouch gestures for deeper interaction with the products. The UI draws on sci-fi aesthetics, adding a dynamic, futuristic feel. Learn more about how we brought Darkspeed world to life ➡ https://lnkd.in/eCdy-gFR   #CobraGolf #Darkspeed #WebGL #ImmersiveExperience

    What’s better than ice cream? Games and ice cream! We worked with Shutterstock Studios and General Mills' Häagen-Dazs to create an AR Afternoon Tea game to go alongside their campaign promoting their new limited edition flavours. Initially planned to run for three months from February 2023, Häagen-Dazs enjoyed the gamified webAR experience so much they extended it by another six months. View the full story on our website!
