Description of installs

The interactive media experiences, Transforming Rio & Billions Connected, were built in house, and were my sole focus and responsibility.
Two multi-screen based experiences, with a kiosk-like functionality. An iPad running a Angular Web App acts as a interactive menu to trigger media play back on a larger wall mounted LCD screen, controlled via a BrightSign Player.

 

Transforming Rio

Transforming Rio, focused on the infrastructure that had been implemented throughout the city by GE in the lead up the Olympics. The touch screen consisted of a map interface, that would allow you to select different regions, to view content surrounding the topic. The application offered 3 different language options.

 
 

 

Billions Connected

Billions connected, had very much the same functionality, but was a much simpler system, with less options and a basic menu like UI. Upon selecting an element on the touch screen, users would trigger Drone footage from the city.
