Currently in production — Petrified Forest National Park interpretive installation.
Diorama Engine turns any environment into a rich, explorable experience. One platform — museums, parks, cultural sites, product showcases, trade shows — adapting to your content, your audience, and every screen.
Step inside the live demo →One engine reads a content package and performs it — atmospheric simulation, interactive storytelling, spatial navigation, multi-language support — across kiosk, mobile, and browser. Change the content, change the experience. The engine stays the same.
What the engine does
Real-time day/night cycles, weather systems, celestial bodies, and ambient life — all computed per-frame, not pre-rendered. Every visit feels different because the environment is alive.
Points of interest anchored to locations in the environment. Rich content cards with text, images, animations, and interactive HTML modules — triggered by where visitors look and what they tap.
One codebase serves kiosk installations, visitor phones, desktop browsers, and offline field apps. Responsive layout, touch and cursor interaction, orientation-aware — no separate builds.
Every aspect of the experience — scenes, timing, styles, effects, languages — is defined in a single content package. Update content without touching code. Swap packages to serve entirely different experiences from the same engine.
A built-in authoring shell with live preview. Drag hotspots, tune effects, adjust timing, configure styles — all through visual controls. No JSON editing required for day-to-day content management.
GPS-triggered content that responds to where visitors are standing. Audio narration, media, and interactive waypoints activated by proximity — designed for outdoor sites, trails, and campus experiences.

Who it's for
Immersive exhibits visitors explore on their own devices. Install a kiosk in the gallery, offer a companion app on phones, or extend the experience online for remote visitors and school groups.
GPS-triggered interpretive experiences for trails, monuments, and natural areas. Audio narration and rich media activated by where visitors stand — no cell coverage required.
Campus tours, research visualization, course material that lives inside an explorable environment. A geology department's field site, a history collection, an architectural campus walk.
Property exploration for resorts and destinations. Guests scan a code at check-in and discover amenities, restaurants, and local attractions through an immersive interface — not a PDF map.
Interactive booth displays and product demonstrations. Each point of interest is a product, feature, or service. Visitors explore on the booth kiosk or continue on their phones after the show.
Artists, designers, and consultants who build immersive experiences for their own clients. A visual authoring shell, manifest-driven content, and deploy-anywhere architecture — your tool, your brand.
