Dreamwall designs Ladbrokes' Marble Races Layout

The online gaming experience shifts into high gear with Marble Races, the latest release from Ladbrokes.

Marble Races feature real marbles competing on an 18-meter circuit, enhanced by animations and virtual backgrounds inspired by the greatest car races and the most prestigious circuits. Dreamwall has collaborated with Ladbrokes to create a visual environment that transforms these races into a true digital spectacle. The circuits are brought to life with 3D animations, offering players a captivating experience where luck and adrenaline converge.

A Unique Blend of Real and Virtual

The Marble Race circuit is entirely physical, with marbles racing on a tangible 18-meter track. Dreamwall's expertise comes into play with the creation of virtual sets, enriched by animated elements inspired by motorsports: race signs, special effects, and evolving panoramas. This fusion of the tangible and the digital delivers a stunning visual experience throughout the competition.

Innovation and Production Expertise

For this project, Dreamwall utilized its expertise in virtual content production, employing augmented reality techniques to transform a conventional competition into an immersive universe. The circuit is fully automated, with races occurring at 3-minute intervals, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, without human intervention. Fourteen cameras positioned along the circuit are automatically sequenced based on marble movement detected by advanced sensors. All graphics are also entirely automated.

This innovative approach exemplifies a new generation of gaming, adding a dynamic and immersive dimension to the experience.
