The Icarus Cup
Fly aboard the most unusual objects
Lumeen develops and markets a medical and recreational device designed for the healthcare and social care sectors, offering immersive virtual reality experiences.
To provide a unique experience for users of its solution, Lumeen has produced an immersive work at the heart of the world’s largest festival dedicated to free flight and aerial sports.
Every September, in Saint-Hilaire-du-Touvet and Lumbin (Isère), the Coupe Icare brings together pilots, enthusiasts, and spectators for competitions, spectacular demonstrations, and costumed paragliding and hang-gliding shows. Both a popular festival, a professional trade fair, and a major aerial event, it attracts tens of thousands of visitors who come to celebrate the imagination of flight.
The Adventice team has taken on the challenge of bringing this incredible event to hospitalized patients, nursing home residents, and people with reduced mobility.
Through immersive virtual reality content, users can experience three full days of festivities—on the ground or onboard a wide variety of flying machines, sometimes unusual ones.
Advanced camera rigging and image stabilization techniques make it possible to deliver sensational moments that are always accessible and free of unpleasant effects.
For some users, it is their very first flight experience—a dream come true.
