Step In and Get Scanned – No Touch Fan Engagement

Groove Jones was there with our XR Avatar Scanner, a volumetric camera system branded as the AT&T Scene Machine. Basketball fans had the chance to step inside, be volumetrically scanned, and then have themselves integrated into a one of a kind video basketball-themed video that they could keep or share on their favorite social platforms like Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, or Snap.
