Five Immersive Learning Experiences You Can Build with ThingLink’s New Creator Plans

ThingLink Team September 23, 2025

We believe immersive learning should be within reach for everyone, not just large organizations and institutions. That’s why ThingLink’s new Creator plans are built with affordability and accessibility at their core. You no longer need a big budget, technical expertise, or specialist hardware to bring immersive ideas to life.

With the new pricing structure, creators can:

• Start small and scale up when ready
• Experiment with interactive projects without long-term commitments
• Access XR-ready features at a fraction of the cost of traditional tools

Lowering the Barrier to XR: Affordable, Accessible, Scalable

The goal of the Creator plans is simple: lower the barrier to XR creation and adoption. By giving individuals and small teams access to professional-grade creation tools, we’re empowering more people to try, test, and build immersive projects at their own pace.

What Can You Build With ThingLink’s New Creator Plans?

The possibilities are endless, but here are just a few ideas to spark inspiration:

1. Interactive Images & Infographics

Turn static visuals into explorable, media-rich resources for exploring on any device. Historic Environment Scotland created this interactive image of Edinburgh Castle for young visitors:

2. 360° Tours and Field Trips

Bring remote places, facilities, or sites to life to engage customers, onboard and train employees and recruit new talent, like Vaisala (below).

3. Step-by-Step Simulations

Guide learners through complex tasks with clarity and confidence to ensure consistency of operations. See this in action in the interactive guide to safe maintenance of an underground water monitoring system (below).

4. 3D Object Annotations

Enhance physical objects with contextual digital information that deepens understanding. Like this interactive guide to geological specimens at Keele University (below).

5. Immersive Storytelling

Create immersive narratives that put learning in context and increase engagement. Like this example created by the University of Salford for their Public Health degree program (below).
