SWING VR is a playful VR installation that makes the dream of flying come true through an innovative combination of swing and virtual reality – a poetic, breathtaking and unforgettable experience for young and old. With every swinging movement, you float higher and higher – over roofs and trees, through the clouds and into space. The intensity of your own motion influences the virtual experience inside a watercolor paper world.

As an art installation SWING VR excites over hundred thousands of users and awakens positive impact on the human psyche. It has been exhibited all over the world in galleries, events and festivals. The VR content is customizable to other worlds, for example city marketing context.

SWING VR innovates in a number of areas. Combining VR technology with physical interfaces is a largely unexplored, especially combining physical motion with virtual sensations. That leads to interesting questions regarding the medical impact that carefully designed VR experiences can have on humans and their physiological and psychological state. We found that a lot of people reported being delighted and more happy after having the sensation of flying through the fantastic world that SWING provides.
Also, SWING gives a wide audience of people easy access to the new medium Virtual Reality – not only in a technical sense, but seeing what experiences can be achieved using this new art form. Altogether, about fifty thousand people all over the world tried SWING by now: most of them had the first contact with virtual reality.
