Mosaic Wall

Project Overview:

Mosaic Wall is an interactive digital installation developed in Unity for an event in the UAE, designed to create a visually stunning and engaging experience for visitors. The application connects to an API to retrieve images uploaded by event attendees. These images dynamically appear on the screen, animate as they move towards a central display, and ultimately combine to form a vibrant mosaic of the event’s logo. This captivating installation not only celebrates audience participation but also serves as a powerful visual representation of community and collaboration.

Methodology:

System Development:

Platform:
Built using Unity to ensure smooth animations, high-quality visuals, and real-time processing of attendee-submitted images.

API Integration:
The application communicates with an API to fetch visitor-uploaded images in real time, ensuring a seamless and automated flow of data.

System Components:

Image Retrieval and Animation:

• API Connection: The Unity app continuously pulls new images from the API as attendees upload them.
• Dynamic Display: Retrieved images pop up on the screen with visually engaging animations, capturing the attention of onlookers.

Mosaic Wall Formation:

• Movement to Mosaic: After appearing on the screen, the images animate and transition towards their designated positions on the mosaic wall.
• Logo Assembly: The individual images combine to form the event’s logo, creating a breathtaking final display that symbolizes unity and participation.

Event Customization:

• Logo Integration: The mosaic wall dynamically adapts to fit the event’s branding, with the ability to recreate any logo or shape using the images.
• Engagement Enhancement: By featuring attendees’ own photos, the mosaic wall creates a sense of inclusion and excitement.

User Interface and Experience:

Interactive and Intuitive Design:

• Real-Time Visuals: Images appear and transition to the wall in real time, ensuring the installation remains lively and dynamic.
• High-Quality Display: The mosaic wall leverages Unity’s graphics capabilities to maintain crisp visuals and fluid animations.

Testing and Validation:

API Testing:

• Ensured seamless connection with the API, including handling large volumes of uploads without lag or interruptions.

Performance Optimization:

• Focused on maintaining smooth animations and transitions even during high activity, ensuring a flawless experience for event attendees.

Deliverables:

• Unity-Based Application: A real-time interactive app for forming a mosaic wall.
• API Integration: Automated retrieval and processing of attendee-uploaded images.
• Dynamic Logo Display: A fully animated mosaic wall that adapts to the event’s branding and logo.

Conclusion:

The Mosaic Wall is a remarkable blend of technology and creativity, delivering a memorable and interactive experience for event attendees in the UAE. By integrating real-time image uploads with dynamic animations, the application fosters a sense of community and excitement. As the mosaic wall comes to life with attendees’ contributions, it transforms the event space into a vibrant celebration of unity and shared moments, leaving a lasting impression on all who participate.
