The VOID announces 5 new Marvel and Disney VR experiences

Summary

• The VOID announces “Ralph Breaks VR” and an experiment from an upcoming Marvel movie

Since the opening of its first test center in 2015, The VOID has established itself as a pioneer in large-scale VR experiences. Rather than simply developing virtual reality applications, the firm offers experiences developed around physical environments. Within large developed complexes, groups of players can interact with objects simultaneously present in the real world and projected in the virtual world.

These ambitious installations are based on high-end equipment such as exclusive VR headsets, backpack PCs and tracking technology developed in-house. Rather than talking about "virtual reality", The VOID uses the term "hyper-reality" to designate his experiences. A term that emphasizes the fact that these experiences go beyond what is possible at home using a simple VR headset.

In 2017, Disney has sealed a partnership with this visionary startup. At the end of the year, the two companies launched the “Star Wars: Secrets of the Empire” experience offering up to four people to immerse themselves in an epic adventure drawn from the Star Wars universe.
