Our Immersive Experience Model
A note from IMITO co-founder, Jacob Dale
Our first major public experience launched in July 2025 aboard HMS Wellington, a historic naval ship moored in Central London. This 30-minute guided VR experience allows visitors to explore the ship as it would have looked and felt during wartime, blending real-time Unreal Engine environments with spatial audio, interactive moments, and character-driven storytelling.
Designed for up to 15 users per session, with capacity to accomodate over 200 visitors per day, the installation demonstrates our model for delivering powerful, story-led VR in compact, high-footfall locations.
Our approach combines cultural depth with operational efficiency: we design for portability, quick setup, and minimal staffing, allowing experiences to be deployed in a range of public, cultural or commercial spaces.
Looking ahead, we are building a growing library of original immersive titles rooted in history and culture: each designed for repeatable use across museums, heritage sites and visitor attractions. With scalable licensing, adaptable environments, and accessible tech, we’re building a model that enables cultural partners to engage new audiences and generate sustainable returns without needing to build custom infrastructure from scratch.
The HMS Wellington Immersive VR Experience
Produced by IMITO, in collaboration with The Wellington Trust
The HMS Wellington Immersive VR Experience tells the story of this important ship’s history and its heroic actions during World War Two. Produced by IMITO in collaboration with The Wellington Trust, this thirty-minute experience places audiences at the heart of Operation Cycle; the daring evacuation of Allied forces from the beaches of northern France, following Dunkirk and just before the fall of France in 1940. Attendees will encounter key characters involved in the mission, handle and explore authentic weapons of the era, and discover more about the Wellington’s vital role in the Atlantic convoys throughout the remainder of the war. Crafted using Unreal Engine, and blending immersive storytelling with interactive VR elements, this high-tech experience offers a powerful journey into some of the most significant moments of the Second World War.
Opened on July 19th 2025, and running now on Saturdays-Mondays aboard HMS Wellington on Victoria Embankment, Central London.
