Creation of the Canon Vision Virtual Showroom

The Challenge

When the pandemic led to IBC’s cancellation, our strategy was to create an innovative virtual showroom that would allow Canon to launch 20+ products in an interactive and immersive way.

Solution

A gaming platform was utilised to produce an easily navigated virtual experience. Using assets that had already been created for the in-person event, we were able to maximise the budget. The full product range was reproduced as 360° models to bring them to life at home via AR and key product launches were live-streamed with interactive audience response features, and successfully integrated personalised expert advice sessions and sales meetings. Data capture was implemented for post-event analysis and continued improvement.

The Canon Vision Virtual Showroom not only captured the atmosphere of a real showroom but exceeded all expectations. The experience attracted a global audience across 40 countries, delivering content in six languages. Originally scheduled to last a few weeks, it was extended by a further three months
