Virtual reality
The L.I.V.E. Centre
Announced in June 2015[6]
, The Landmark Interactive Virtual Experience (L.I.V.E. Centre) is a virtual reality and augmented reality concept that will be created in a Chinese city in the summer of 2017.[7] This first 200,000 square foot installation will feature traditional theme park attractions, such as an interactive museum, virtual zoo, aquarium, live theatre, 4D theatre, and art gallery, with 30% of its experiences expected to contain virtual reality content.[8]
Pavilion Of Me™
In October 2015, Landmark announced the company's concept of the Pavilion Of Me™(P.O.M), a daily-use in-home entertainment portal that reimagines everyday activities such as checking social media, online shopping, watching film and TV content, video chat, and playing video games into virtual reality experiences.[9]
Virtual World’s Fair
In conjunction with the Pavilion of Me™, the concept for the Virtual World's Fair™ was also announced—a virtual reality experience including real-time social interaction, entertainment, education and shopping, like a traditional world's fair, but designed for in-home use rather than as a real-world destination.[10]
