Atop a high vantage point, in the center of the Inspirada master-planned community, sits “The Overlook”. This park feature is a botanical garden for the community displaying over 200 species of plant materials, offering live examples of colors and textures found within the Las Vegas Valley’s arid desert environment. “The Overlook” also serves as a visitor center and trailhead showcasing features of the community. The Inspirada “app” integrates with this innovative educational kiosk. Visitors experience information guiding them to panoramic representations of what the community will become – from parks and neighborhood locations down to the details of the blooming landscape. The app uses geopositioning, an internal compass, augmented reality, 3-D parallax backgrounds, dynamic image rendering, and animation to not only display fully realized parks, playgrounds, fitness facilities, signage, and neighborhoods in development, but help current and future residents explore the master plan from endless vantage points.
