Moving, singing and dreaming with a Chrome experiment from Cirque du Soleil
Wednesday, September 19, 2012
(Cross-posted from the
Official Google Blog
)
Cirque du Soleil
stages impressive live performances that challenge the laws of physics and the limits of the human body. Today, at Google’s
Big Tent event
in New York, the wonder of
Cirque du Soleil
transcended the confines of real world performance and embraced the entire web through
Movi.Kanti.Revo
, a new sensory Chrome experiment crafted by
Cirque du Soleil
and developed by Subatomic Systems.
Movi.Kanti.Revo comes from the
Esperanto
words for moving, singing and dreaming. In the experiment, you can follow a mysterious character through a beautiful and surreal world to encounter enchanting
Cirque du Soleil
performances and live an emotional journey made of love, doubts, hopes and dreams.
Breaking with the tradition of point and click web browsing, you can navigate through this unique experience simply by gesturing in front of your device’s camera. This was made possible using the
getUserMedia
feature of WebRTC, a technology supported by modern browsers, that, with your permission, gives web pages access to your computer’s camera and microphone without installing any additional software.
To bring the creativity of
Cirque du Soleil
to the browser, we mixed traditional HTML and CSS with 3D transitions and HTML5 APIs. If you’re more technology-curious, you can get a backstage tour via our
Chromium blog
and a brand new
technical case study
.
Chrome Experiments
like Movi.Kanti.Revo demonstrate how the web has evolved into a beautiful creative canvas underpinned by continuously evolving web technologies. For optimal viewing, you’ll need to use a computer that has a camera and a browser that supports WebRTC, like
Chrome
. You can also access the experiment from a tablet or a mobile phone for a slightly different yet still beautiful experience.
