Our Work

Epic Marble

2020

Epic Marble was one of the first games on the App Store specifically designed to take advantage of the LiDAR sensor on the 2020 iPad Pro and iPhone 12 Pro. The LiDAR data allows us to nearly instantly make a highly accurate scan of the environment for the marble to interact with. The game is beautifully simple; just place a launch pad in the world, then a goal, and try to roll your virtual marble over the geometry of the real world and into the goal.

The longer the run, the higher your score. Compete with friends and rivals on the unique Epic Marble leaderboard. Every leaderboard run is automatically recorded and the resulting video is shown right alongside your high score. We have big plans for this game. Take it for a spin and let us know what you think!

Babble Rabbit

2019

Babble Rabbit began as our entry into 6d.ai’s God Demo Challenge for prototypes that take advantage of their world meshing SDK. Our entry into that contest was called Whizzy Wig and featured a voice-controlled AR bunny. After being selected as one of the winners of that Challenge, we decided to keep working on Whizzy Wig and it eventually became Babble Rabbit.

In Babble Rabbit, you play with your own virtual bunny in whatever real-world space you are in. Your bunny responds to over a dozen commands and can do things like play fetch, hide and seek, and play dead, along with the basics such as jumping, eating, and napping. You can also take your bunny on playdates with a friend’s rabbit if you both use the app on the same wifi network.

Genie Design was developed in Unity3D and utilizes OpenCV to provide realistic looking reflections on surfaces, and to combine a 3D representation of the room with the 2D photo.

Pepsi Max Your World

Client: Allenby, Pepsi Max

Built for Pepsi Max Israel to celebrate the Jewish New Year, Pepsi Max Your World invites players to record their own beat box to share with the world.

Swipe the label back and forth to “scratch”, or stretch it up and down to speed up or slow down playback. Record your own loops on the real bottle or virtual bottles, and then lay down a longer “Jam” track to share on Facebook.

J. Paul Getty Museum Augsburg Cabinet in AR

2010
Client: Getty

This AR experience was part of a web experience that showcased one of the most complex objects in its collection, a 17th-century display cabinet from Augsburg, Germany. Through AR, visitors to the Getty’s website were able to achieve unprecedented access to this fascinating object.

The AR feature allowed users to experience the Augsburg Cabinet via a 3-D object overlay on a live video feed from the viewer’s webcam—in this case, a simulation of the cabinet. The model spins, tilts, and responds as the viewer interacts with it, creating a sense of participation. This experience is caused both by the viewer's presence in the live video along with hand-eye engagement used to control the cabinet's movement.
