What Were the Challenges?
1. Captivating Amid Competition:
In the midst of numerous exhibits, creating an experience that stands out was paramount. The challenge was to transcend the norm and provide attendees with something unforgettable.
2. Precise Product Representation:
ELGi's products—windshield rain wipers, compressors, and horns—come with intricate functionalities that required detailed, accurate representation in VR.
3. Optimizing User Time:
With a target simulation time of just 4 minutes, ensuring attendees got a comprehensive understanding of ELGi's offerings was crucial.
Final Experience of the Simulation
The video demonstration below depicts the ELGi's product showcase in virtual reality developed by Taanga Studios. This experience transported users into visualizing each and every aspect of ELGi's product's and advanced VR capabilities by being in a drivers seat.
What was Our Approach?
1. Tailored Unity VR Development for Oculus Quest:
To ensure a smooth and immersive experience, Taanga Studios leaned on Unity's advanced VR capabilities. Designed specifically for the Oculus Quest, this made ELGi's VR experience with Taanga Studios feel realistic and responsive.
2. True-to-Life Train Simulation:
ELGi's product showcase in Virtual Reality transported users into the pilot's seat of a train. This first-hand experience allowed participants to engage with and operate ELGi's products, understanding their real-world applications.
3. Interactive Touchpoints with Product Integration:
Every product had specific interactive sequences. Users could, for example, toggle the windshield wipers during a simulated rainfall, feel the compressor's power as the train chugged forward, or blast the horn, making the experience both educational and memorable.
What was the Outcome?
1. Unprecedented Engagement:
The booth buzzed with activity as attendees queued to experience ELGi's VR collaboration with Taanga Studios. This engagement translated to a broader awareness of ELGi's innovative product lineup.

3. Stellar Client-Partner Feedback:
The project's success wasn't just celebrated by ELGi's top executives. Frontline operators from Indian Railways were also stunned by the simulation. Their feedback was overwhelmingly positive, with a strong inclination towards adopting VR simulations over traditional computer-based methods for training operators.
