HTML 5 YouTube Banner

At the recent DoubleClick HTML 5 Banner Challenge, Biborg Interactive & Alpha Layer from France came up with an innovative HTML 5 banner demo that invited users to fly over France by hot air balloon, discovering famous places, such as the Effel Tower, Notre Dame de la Garde in Marseille or Le Château de Versailles from the sky.

The rich media banner utilised a number of HTML 5 features, like the W3C Geolocation standard, WebGL, Audio and Video tags, along with some great Google Maps integration, to help bring the idea to life.
