An exciting commission for Eye Revolution has been the augmented reality virtual tour of the BBC’s new ‘The World’s Newsroom’.
Next to the old Broadcasting House in Portland Place, The World’s Newsroom comprises some of the most advanced technology in the broadcasting world. It is the BBC’s biggest television service and reaches more than 276 million homes, as well as hotel rooms (1.5m), cruise ships, airlines and mobile phone platforms too.
Augmented Reality Virtual Tour
Eye Revolution were commissioned to create an interactive experience to showcase the new facilities to overseas partners. As well as documenting the space itself, we were briefed to capture the studios with presenters Komla Dumor and Babita Sharma broadcasting the news.
The 360 Panoramas are used as a virtual tour for the main web site, an augmented reality app and Gyro Goggles for a truly immersive experience.

We’ve created a variety of projects for the BBC over the years. You may like to check out our TV set virtual tours of the Doctor Who set, or our Tardis virtual tour. We’ve also worked with BBC Studioworks to create tours of their TV studios available for hire.
