BASHIBA PANORAMA, WHEN THE BIG MOVIE IS MORE USEFUL THAN A BIG PICTURE!
If you are snowboarding, and you see an avalanche, do you try to escape the trajectory of the avalanche or do you worry about variables like external temperature, wind force etc?
Similarly, in business environments, we tend to double-check and re-read variables that in moments of crisis might be irrelevant. BASHIBA Panorama has been built as a natural visual complement (The Big Movie) so that you and your team can share a common picture of reality and openly discuss counter-measures.

If the avalanche is imminent, you don't want to lose time in discussing the density of the snow!

BASHIBA Panorama is a customizable real-time data visualization engine that can be connected to any type of relevant information that requires permanent monitoring and is subject to change (financial data, traffic data, performance data, KPIs, etc...). Information is transformed from up to one hundred individual data streams into competing environmental forces which affect the scenery in subtle and often surprising ways. Trends and eventual problems appear as anomalies in the weather conditions and the surface of the sea. The BASHIBA Panorama is instinctively legible and transits emotional sensations together with vital information.

BASHIBA offers companies the possibility to have virtual windows on a beautiful landscape that reacts in real-time to company data changes. Developments of the stock market, for instance, become perceivable by cloud transformations, size and speed of ocean waves, amount and size of snow flakes, wind and sun strength, to name a few. The result is a beautiful, developing scene in which observers (e.g. traders) can monitor several streams of background information using their peripheral vision.

In these videos, the virtual landscape is influenced in real-time by financial information. Day and night cycles, star positions and moon phases are calculated to match the ones of the market we are currently watching. In the middle of the night, we can still "breathe" the closing of the market.
