For the Engie group, the studio developed an augmented reality application dedicated to carbon footprint calculation. The entire impact calculation had to run directly within a standalone headset, without an external server. Using Unity, the team programmed a sleek two-dimensional interface incorporating the brand's typography and pictograms. The system instantly generates personalized feedback and prepares the information for delivery via SMS. The studio demonstrates its ability to embed autonomous calculations directly into the core of an augmented reality headset.

The system had to deliver a dynamic, personalized assessment without breaking the user's attention. The technical difficulty: running all calculations directly on an augmented reality headset, without relying on the venue's connectivity, while preparing the routing of personal data via SMS.

Our approach

We developed a standalone application using the Unity real-time engine. Equipped with an augmented reality headset, the visitor discovers a two-dimensional graphical interface complying with Engie's brand guidelines. The application processes their carbon footprint directly locally. Three animated buttons ("Reset", "Back", and "Send") allow them to adjust their choices and then prepare to send their summary to a mobile device.
