# Volkswagen - Touareg Launch -- Interactive Floor Projection

> An immersive projection activation MLABART created for the Volkswagen Touareg launch. A dedicated space was built outside a shopping mall, with the floor inside driven by interactive projection: content plays across the ground and stepping on a projected flame sets it off.

## Scenario

The Volkswagen Touareg launch, in a purpose-built space outside a shopping mall and open to passing mall traffic. The activation needed to engage shoppers who were not yet looking at the car.

## Interaction

Projection covers the floor of the enclosed space and responds to where visitors stand: stepping on a projected flame triggers it to burst, so the ground itself is the interface.

## Technologies

- Interactive Floor Projection
- Immersive Projection
- Motion Tracking

## Marketing value

Building outside the mall captures shopper traffic that would never book a dealership visit, and floor interaction gives a car launch something for people who are not yet looking at the car.

## Why brands choose this approach

- Building outside the mall reaches shoppers who would never book a dealership visit -- the audience walks past for free.
- The floor is the interface, so there is nothing to learn and nothing to queue for; people step in and it responds.
- It gives a car launch something for the people who are not yet looking at the car -- partners, children, the undecided.
- The enclosed space is relocatable, so the same build serves multiple cities on a roadshow.
