We are Peter van der Burg and Wesley van der Burg, founders of Realix V.O.F. We started out by building and designing our own escape rooms and soon realized that what excited us most was not the business side of running them, but the technology that makes everything come to life. Puzzles that include some clever piece of tech have always been our favorite to create.
With our background in automation, we noticed that while there were already systems for escape room control, there was still a lot of room for improvement. We believed it could be done much better, more intuitive and built from the perspective of real escape room builders.
That’s how Realix and the Escape Room Controller (ERC) were created. We wanted to build a system that not only gives builders simple and flexible control over every part of the room, but also drastically reduces cabling and installation effort. This way, you can focus on building great experiences while the technology quietly takes care of the rest.
