ST Engineering Antycip provides North Africa's first Cave VR

Located in the Zarzis Smart Center, This virtual reality Cave has three teams Barco F80 that project on three 2.4x3 meter screens with a resolution of 4,800x2,000 pixels. Besides, It has a four-camera tracking system and 70 pairs of 3D glasses.

He Zarzis Smart Center, which is located within the Zarzis business park in the southeast of Tunisia, houses the first Cave VR from North Africa, a state-of-the-art viewing facility provided by ST Engineering Antycip which aims to transform the technological landscape of the region.

This innovative project positions Zarzis as a key player in advanced technological development and sets a new benchmark for virtual reality installations in the region..

The Cave VR is intended to enhance Zarzis' role as a major technology hub, providing international companies and professionals with cutting-edge prototyping tools, specialized training and 3D modeling in sectors such as automotive, aeronautics, medicine, architecture and oil and gas. This facility will drive innovation and improve the competitiveness of regional and international companies.

Chaouki Friaa, President and CEO of Zarzis Business Park, highlights the impact the Cave has had on the local community. “This virtual reality Cave will provide an immersive space that will appeal to residents of all ages, strengthening social ties within the community.
