The screens will feature original 3D content produced by global ad agency Saatchi & Saatchi to engage viewers and drive sales at the point of purchase.

T-Mobile Czech Republic will start by placing one Spatial View 46" display in each of their two most popular stores in Prague, located at Novy Smichov Shopping Center and Galerie Fenix. Using Spatial View's content creation tools, Saatchi & Saatchi specially updated T-Mobile's current consumer advertising campaign to play in 3D within each of these locations.
