ENI Interactive wall and table

Overview

ENIHouse is a cutting-edge digital experience project developed for Eni, featuring two large-scale interactive installations: an Interactive Wall and an Interactive Table. Designed to transform static corporate content into an immersive, dynamic, and collaborative experience, these installations showcase how modern technology can elevate brand communication, employee engagement, and knowledge sharing.

Interactive Wall

The Interactive Wall comprises four touch-enabled stations, each offering users a rich multimedia browsing experience. Visitors can explore a vast library of videos via intuitive previews: touching a thumbnail animates the content onto the large screen above, where a main player displays related videos. This system allows users to create custom playlists and dynamically navigate thematic collections. Built using Unity3D (v2.6) and a custom VideoWall client, the installation required extensive research into resource optimization to ensure smooth playback, high-resolution visuals, and low-latency interactions across multiple displays simultaneously.

Interactive Table

The Interactive Table is a 6×4 screen installation divided into four individual workstations. Each station acts as a digital “desk,” allowing users to browse folders containing videos, documents, and corporate media assets. Selected documents can be dragged and distributed on the table surface, saved for later reading, reordered, or expanded to fullscreen mode. This collaborative interface transforms static company archives into a hands-on, visually engaging knowledge base that multiple users can explore concurrently.

Frontend/Backend Development

The entire frontend was developed in Unity3D, with particular emphasis on usability, interface fluidity, and seamless frontend-backend communication. A suite of customization tools and adjustable parameters was built to allow on-site configuration of the installations. This flexibility enables real-time adaptation of object sizes, colors, and layouts to match the physical dimensions of screens, panels, and display environments — ensuring a consistent, high-quality experience across all touchpoints.

Both installations are powered by a robust backend system developed by BWave, enabling instant synchronization of multimedia content across all interactive surfaces. Administrators can remotely manage videos, subtitles, tags, and documents through a web-based interface. Any updates or changes are immediately reflected in the installations, creating a real-time content pipeline that keeps all materials current without interrupting user experiences.
