NXND VR Flight Experience at Hanger 66

Located at 66 Seletar Aerospace View, Hanger 66 is a flight themed Cafe in Singapore. They had wanted to create a space for flight enthusiast to come together. However, they felt that traditional interior design element could not adequately bring out the flight experience that they crave to bring to their space.

Looking for a way to bring the flight experience closer to their visitor, they approach us for a solution. To that end, our immersion engineer took a trip down to Hangar 66 for a site study. 

After completion of the site study, our engineer identify that majority of the visitors that frequent the cafe as expected are flight enthusiast in one way or the other. They are curious about flight, aircraft, and some had experience playing a flight simulator game before. Apart from that, there are also visitors that are attracted to its flight theme. Lastly, our engineer also noticed that there are a high density of pilots that like to hangout at the cafe.

Arm with the site survey information, our engineer identify that for the VR rig the key requirement that we must keep to is:

• It must not take up too much space;
• Immersion is imperative;
• The rig must be friendly to beginner and intuitive to use;
• The rig should give an immersive experience, but not limited to a VR experience.
• Pilot can use the rig to introduce a layer of their flight experience to their family members. (of course our engineer know that nothing beat the real deal)
• Ultimately, the flight simulator rig must deliver a immersive flight experience that users will come back for more. 

 And thus, our VR Motion rig was born.
