OVERVIEW

Petrosains
Diorama

We partnered with the Petrosains Team to transform the Geotime Diorama at Petrosains Gallery, converting it from a traditional exhibit into a dynamic, interactive experience. This permanent installation now features the pre-existing automated dinosaurs against a digitally projected background, enhancing the depiction of prehistoric life along the Thai and Malayan borders.

IDEA

Dinosaurs

The central concept was to breathe new life into the old diorama by introducing technology that would make the prehistoric scenes more engaging and educational. Our goal was to create an interactive environment where visitors could not only see but interact with the dinosaurs, learning about their behaviors, habitats, and origins through integrated digital tools.

APPROACH

More Than A
Digital
Background

Our approach involved merging traditional diorama elements with modern technology. We replaced the static hand-painted backgrounds with dynamic projected images that could change and respond to visitor interactions. The integration of tablet systems allowed for an educational component, where visitors could control and discover facts about the dinosaurs. We also developed custom content that played at specific times, narrating the Earth's history and highlighting Petronas' contributions to environmental progress.

HIGHLIGHTS OF THE EVENT

An Interactive
PreHistoric
Panorama

The revamped background of the Geotime Diorama now features a large interactive touchwall. This projected wall brings the ancient landscapes to life, offering a window back in time where dinosaurs roamed the Thai-Malayan regions. Visitors can interact with the scenery, triggering animations and information that make the prehistoric world accessible and engaging.

Alongside the touchwall, we introduced interactive learning tablets that provide detailed information about the dinosaurs. These tablets allow visitors to explore various aspects of dinosaur life, such as hunting patterns, sleeping habits, and evolutionary origins, making the exhibit not only a visual but also an educational journey.

Impact

A New Era Of
Discovery

The transformation of the Geotime Diorama has been met with acclaim from both the client and visitors. By shifting from a passive to an interactive experience, we've significantly enriched the educational value of the exhibit. The installation not only offers insights into local dinosaur species previously unhighlighted but also serves as a lasting educational resource that aligns with Petrosains' mission to educate and inspire. This project has set a new standard for museum exhibits, demonstrating the power of interactive technology in historical education.
