The largest interactive dome in Dubai was included in the Guinness Book of Records
The dome is called "Al Wasl" and was designed and built in Dubai to host concerts and performances. Translated from Arabic, it means "connection" and the largest interactive light show with the effect of full immersion was opened here. The unique structure got into the Guinness Book of Records and as the official arbiter of the champion book Alwaleed Osman noted, "the architectural perfection of the structure is unsurpassed," the press reports.
The size of the dome is more than 24 thousand square meters. It is equipped with a touch screen over the entire surface. The effect of full immersion is achieved using a tablet with augmented reality functions. Visitors can create unique content themselves and change the 360-degree laser projection by interacting with the dome. Already in January, anyone will be able to control the projection from their phone," said Amna Abulkhul, executive creative director of the project.
The spherical building was built in Dubai in 2021 for the World Expo. The largest self-supporting dome was built according to the project of the Chicago bureau Adrian Smith + Gordon Gill. This is the most complex structure of the exposition, in the installation of which more than 800 technical specialists participated. During the day, the dome provides a saving shadow, in the evenings it is illuminated with multicolored lights.
