Under the water lies a world of secrets and strength, where ancient hunters soar through endless azure. Shark Universe is a one-of-a-kind, cutting-edge, marine-themed, entertainment and educational franchise providing audiences of all ages the opportunity to immerse themselves in this mysterious world using the latest technology, exceptional storytelling, and the largest commitment ever to ocean conservation. That's a lot of shark, much more than a gear-head's heaven. Shark Universe is not simply a spectacle, it is a vehicle through which one can explore the vital roles sharks play in a healthy ecosystem and educate the public on the harmful misconceptions many hold of the much-maligned creatures.
Substantially, Shark Universe is all about being stoked on diversity and the wonder of life in the sea. Visitors to the ride are surrounded by the shimmery reefs and the dark icy depths of the sea and are even confronted with all manner of marine marvels, thanks to cutting-edge virtual reality (VR) tech. These are educational experiences that should also be thrilling. Interactive modules enable visitors to understand that sharks are the most diverse and successful predators in the sea, from how they hunt to how they socialize, even offering a peek at their evolutionary history, dating back more than 400 million years. With its' super crisp graphics, along with its' motion-sensing technology, Shark Universe immerses viewers in the underwater world to feel it and relate to it from a perspective that drives curiosity, and that surprises with empathy.
Possibly one of its most tech-centric aspects to date is the franchise's global network of augmented reality (AR) installations. Installed in museums, aquariums and public spaces, these interactive exhibits display digital information on the physical world, so visitors can “swim” with holographic sharks or visualize what plastic pollution is doing to oceans. For example, a quick scan of a local waterway and out thrust the projected images of the effect of overfishing on shark populations, converting abstract notions of numbers of sharks and patterns of movement into tangible, unforgettable phenomena. In democratizing marine science, this process enables communities everywhere in the world – those who live far from the ocean too – to engage in marine science.
They appreciate a good story, too, however, so Shark Universe is likewise built off stories of persevere, change and survival throughout its experiences. And in original documentaries produced in collaboration with leading marine biologists, it highlights conservation efforts around the globe, from tagging endangered hammerheads to, at long last, keeping poachers out of nursery grounds in the Galápagos Islands. These are supported by animations and comic strips targeted younger audience who can discover environmental protection with entertaining heroes and adventures plot. Shark Universe re-frames cultural stories about sharks to have them be seen as the good guys were in the world now, and has the audience consider sharks as allies in climate change.
At a time when the health of the ocean is under more stress than ever, Shark Universe is hope. It is a place where awe and action intersect, where the pleasure of diving with a 20-foot whale shark is equaled only by the imperative to save its home.
