Creating an immersive AR experience for Canada's oldest hydroelectric station.
Chaudiere Falls in Ottawa is home to Canada's first hydroelectric generating station. After a years-long project to modernize the facility, Hydro Ottawa opened it to the public for the first time in over 100 years.
Hydro Ottawa wanted to draw visitors and educate them about the falls using an augmented reality experience with self-guided tours on smartphones. Without software development expertise in-house, they chose to work with Iversoft and Banfield.
We created Visit Chaudiere Falls - an iOS and Android augmented reality app featuring clean and engaging UX/UI design, custom animations that play over the landscape, and multiple language choices.
Visitors click the AR button at select landmarks. Built with accessibility in mind, the information can also be found by clicking through the location map within the app, allowing anyone to learn more from anywhere.
Hydro Ottawa has a fun and engaging way to connect with Ottawa residents and visitors. The Visit Chaudiere Falls app gives the public a new lens through which to appreciate Canada's oldest hydroelectric station - blending history, conservation, and cutting-edge technology.
