Inspired by Lego’s new Star Wars sets, we created three bespoke AR experiences - a UCS X-Wing Starfighter for the aspiring Rebel pilot; the Endor Speeder Chase for Scout Trooper fans; and the Emperor’s Throne Room, where Luke Skywalker and Darth Vader held their final climactic battle.

‍

We used Web AR platform 8th Wall and React-three-fiber, a renderer for creating animated 3D graphics, to create an excellent UI framework that supported composability and easy swapping of scenes, objects, and materials.

Some technical highlights included the glow of the lightsaber in the Emperor’s Throne Room and clipped planes that cut the trees off in the shape of the base in the Endor Speeder Chase scene.
