A one-night VR installation at the 2019 XPrize Visioneering conference on the Paramount Studios backlot in Hollywood. Participants wore full-body harnesses and VR headsets, positioned at an elevated stage’s edge. The experience simulated jumping from a highrise building, with participants actually lowered by overhead rope while fans created sensory effects. Over 100 guests participated. Developed the software and show control, and assisted with mechanical rigging design.
