Description

Cambridgeshire County Council (the Authority), as part of the CORE project, require a bespoke venue specific Augmented Reality (AR) experience to be delivered and deployed at the Cambridge Corn Exchange that will run over the 5G Open RAN network that is being developed by the CORE project. The AR experience has a dual purpose within the project to firstly test the capabilities of a 5G Open RAN network utilising the data intensive/low latency requirements of AR technology and secondly to demonstrate how 5G Open RAN technology can support innovative technologies to generate new opportunities for a local economy.

In order for the AR experience to demonstrate value to the local economy it is essential that the experience is bespoke to the venue. The AR experience will need to be designed, developed and deployed in collaboration with Cambridge City Council who own and run the venue. It will also be vital for the successful bidder to work with the already assigned technical partners to ensure that the AR hardware/experience is successfully integrated/deployed on the 5G network and to support the testing/optimisation of the network capabilities through the use of the AR experience.

The theme of the AR experience will be to celebrate the Cambridge Corn Exchange entering its 150th year, further details on the Cambridge Corn Exchange and its history can be found here - https://www.cambridgelive.org.uk/cornex .

Output requirements include the following:

- A bespoke AR experience that will help celebrate the 150th anniversary of the Cambridge Corn Exchange. Deployable on the main ground floor (the venue layout can be found in appendix ) by end December 2024.

- Easily deployable and removable experience that can be set-up, run and removed within a day. The experience will run on dates/times to be agreed by Cambridge City Council that fit in-between the other planned events at the venue.

- Integration of the AR experience hardware on to the 5G network that is being developed.

- Verbal and/or written data/reports on the performance of the AR experience in different operational environments and advice on how to utilise the experience to support testing.

- Maintenance and operational support of the AR experience must be included for the duration of the contract.

- AR capable hardware to deliver the experience.
