Our Solution
National Geographic wanted kids to learn about wildlife in a way that actually held their attention. We created a live digital performance where motion-captured animals including meerkats, orangutans and more, answered children's questions in real-time. Kids were having genuine conversations with animals, making the learning stick because it felt like magic instead of a lecture. This attraction is pure education through enchantment.

Client Testimonial
We were integrating motion capture technology into an interactive attraction and needed a development partner who understood both the technical side and the guest experience. Finding someone with that dual expertise in the FEC space isn't easy. Slacker Apps made the collaboration seamless.
Their communication was excellent, they delivered consistent progress updates, and they truly understood how motion capture translates into engaging visitor experiences. The entire process was efficient and professional. We're very happy with the results and can heartily recommend them to anyone working on interactive digital experiences.

Imaged Reality is the result of a longstanding partnership in the development of a geological visualisation tool that helps oil and gas companies to understand the cores that they sample, collaborate with each other, and much more.
Private Eye - VR Detective Game
We created Private Eye, an atmospheric VR narrative that plunges players into the shoes of a 1950s detective embroiled in a twisted, trust-no-one plot. With no cut-scenes, the player is constantly in charge, with a seamless custom control system.
