Using the power of AR and a new 5G Open RAN network, we’re developing a series of interactive experiences at Cambridge’s famous Corn Exchange Cambridge Corn Exchange.

The venue has hosted thousands of concerts over its 150-year history. We’re enabling the public to relive these iconic performances and watch them come to life before their very eyes. It will create a magical performance that technically can be viewed anywhere in the world.

Here’s how we’re doing it:
✔️ We filmed real-life artists in 3D, recreating classic performances from the venue’s back catalogue. Imagine Freddie Mercury performing ‘We Will Rock You’, Amy Winehouse singing ‘Back to Black’ and David Bowie as ‘Star Man’.

✔️ Our expert coders turned the footage into an immersive Augmented Reality experience.

✔️ The audience puts on an AR headset to view the footage, using a Meta Quest 3 or Apple Vision. A hologram of the concert appears on stage in front of the audience, transporting them back in time. Events from music history are recreated in the exact same place they happened many years ago.

We’re proud to be working alongside all the project partners at the forefront of this exciting evolution in performance art and audience engagement.

We’re creating an innovative AR experience for the Corn Exchange thanks to a commission by Connecting Cambridgeshire.

Last October, we secured funding from the Department for Science, Innovation and Technology and became a project partner for the Cambridgeshire Open RAN Ecosystem (CORE) project. After an innovative and ambitious pitch, Gooii has been selected as the content supplier.

To celebrate the Corn Exchange’s 150th anniversary, we’ll create a bespoke venue-specific AR experience, which will run on the 5G Open RAN network. It will include interactive elements that tell fascinating stories and bring the venue’s history to life.

We’ll then connect devices such as the Meta Quest 3 and Apple Vision Pro, as well as iOS and Android devices, to test out the content. We’ll organise trial sessions with the public, asking Corn Exchange visitors to wear the headsets and interact with the AR content.

We’re proud to be part of a project that strives to diversify the supply chain of the UK’s Open RAN network and are excited to see how the scheme develops. We love creating AR content for the tourism and entertainment industry and we can’t wait to test it out with members of the public. Such a pleasure to be working with
AWTG Ltd, Benetel, Ontix, University of Surrey, Wolfram, Department for Science, Innovation and Technology, UKTIN, Cambridgeshire County Council and Connecting Cambridgeshire.

We're excited to introduce Gooii’s newest team member Luka Preece, a tech enthusiast who brings creativity, passion and a deep love for VR to our innovative projects.

Luka joins us as a Junior Developer for their third-year placement as part of their Computing course at Nottingham Trent University . Having completed two years of study, they're gaining hands-on experience at Gooii before returning to finish the final year.

From a young age, Luka was captivated by coding and computers. Now at Gooii, those skills are being applied to a groundbreaking project: an AR car show. They're currently focusing on Gooii’s 3D modelling work and developing their coding and programming skills along the way. Much of this 3D modelling work is self-taught - a testament to the power of their curiosity and drive to learn independently.

As Gooii continues to innovate in the world of VR, AR and beyond, we're excited to see our newest team member develop. Their passion for technology, creativity, and coding will really contribute to our team. With a bright future ahead, we know Luka will be a driving force behind some of our most exciting projects yet. Welcome aboard!

Gooii Director Phil recently visited Fountaindale School in Mansfield to show children with profound and multiple learning needs about XR technology. Phil gave a group of 6-16-year-olds the Hololens 2 headsets to try out our interactive holographic movie ‘Robin Hood: An Arrow Through Time’. The teachers were blown away by how engrossed the children were with the experience.

If we can create XR experiences that are specifically linked to the curriculum, it might enable students to engage with topics in a way that is more suited to their learning style. Imagine interacting with virtual zoos, enchanted forests and ‘visiting’ different countries. Or creating settings to inspire creative writing and storytelling, pointing and counting objects, or bursting balloons to develop counting skills. The world is your oyster when it comes to creating learning experiences with AR. Which makes it an incredibly exciting and rewarding space in which to work.

Finding ways for digital technology and creativity to enhance people’s lives is one of the reasons we do what we do. We understand Augmented Reality’s power to transform learning experiences by making them more interactive and engaging, particularly when it comes to education.

We’re excited to be working with the National Association of Boards of Pharmacy in America to design a new bespoke document management system that will efficiently manage and organise the thousands of legal documents in their database 📒⁠
⁠
NABP asked us to build both the internal and front-end systems for their 90 single and multi-user subscribers. The bespoke DMS will allow users to search and download documents, organise them into collections and share them as links. ⁠
⁠
Gooii is well versed in handling large data sets and helping our clients present them in a clear, concise way. We develop streamlined, intuitive User Interfaces (UI) that enable users to quickly search for specific terms and documents.⁠
⁠
We’re working with Knowledge Integration and their Collections Information Integration Middleware (CIIM), which can extract, collect and synchronise data from back-office systems and present it to users in Elastic’s super quick Elasticsearch database.⁠
⁠
We’re proud to be part of a project that makes data more accessible and we’re excited to create a new bespoke system that will improve the way our client documents its data. Read more about the project:

Jisc’s (e)co garden was a virtual AR exhibition that appeared before your very eyes and taught taught visitors about sustainability.

We brought to life the ambitious creative ideas of Ben Goodway and his team, who commissioned us to create a collaborative learning experience for its Digifest programme at the Birmingham ICC arena. As a result, we created a huge 18x9m virtual exhibition stand entirely in AR.

The (e)co garden was designed to engage with delegates about how we can use technology in a much more sustainable way, and to showcase how AR can be an engaging and collaborative learning and teaching tool.

By putting on headsets, visitors could walk around a virtual garden that appeared in a real-world exhibition space. The different ‘areas’ enabled visitors to cultivate plants, virtually clean up the rivers and waterfalls, feel the wind of a virtual turbine and watch holographic films about sustainability. This just wouldn’t be possible via traditional means.

Find out how we developed the project on our website https://gooii.com/jisc-eco-garden-augmented-reality-exhibition/
