Immersive spherical displays, designed and manufactured in France — installed in 12+ countries.
ORA Vision designs and manufactures immersive spherical displays: interactive 360° globes for museums, live events, brands and attractions. Founded in Paris in 2022 (formerly Atmosphère), we build the ORA Sphere — a headset-free, hands-on experience with seamless 4K imagery, up to 100 touch points and spatial audio. Our ORA Spheres are installed in 12+ countries and available to buy or rent, for clients including L’Oréal, CMA CGM and leading museums.
It started in an Air France lounge. During a long layover, founder Philippe Walter spent hours in front of a world map — half the globe in darkness, half in light — and imagined a living map on a sphere. After research and trials, the solution was a projector paired with a “fisheye” lens; as projector technology advanced, that idea became a stunning image of a rotating, half-lit Earth. The device was never limited to representing the Earth — from museums to corporate spaces, it adapts to countless uses. That was the start of the ORA Vision journey — today ORA Vision manufactures the ORA Sphere range and delivers turnkey installations worldwide.
The ORA Sphere comes in a full range — ORA S, ORA+, ORA XL, ORA Hemisphere, ORA Air, plus ORA Hybrid experiences — from compact desktop globes to giant XL spheres. End to end: hardware, content, delivery, installation and on-site support, to buy or rent.
The ORA Vision team brings together technical and creative expertise — from creative directors and motion designers to optical and software engineers.
