May be stating the obvious or missing the point, but this is just a 3d render, right? Nothing about this looks like it exists in the real world.

this is definitely a render but Hughes Research Labs in Malibu had a room like this in the early 90s, they called it the Cave, using projectors synced up to several computers. meant for one user at a time.

Disneyland Anaheim had a giant room circled by projectors in the 1980s where visitors would stand while holding a handrail and they showed river rafting videos that weren't as crazy as this.

Interesting! The university I attended had a similar room using projectors, but it was never as impressive as this. They did have it rigged to play Doom, though!
