A smart city science and technology exhibition hall in Heze, a city in China’s southwestern Shandong province, has become the first public space in the municipality to showcase a ng four-sided CAVE installation using Christie APS series laser projectors.
More specifically, the showcase uses 17 Christie LWU650-APS laser projectors installed on the ceiling of this venue by Christie’s trusted partner Dicction (Beijing) Science and Technology Development. The visuals transport visitors into an immersive environment that illustrates how Heze City is gearing up to develop into a smart city leveraging big data and cloud computing for its newest projects.
Leo Zhang, chief executive officer, Dicction, said: “We are very proud of this 14-channel, four-sided CAVE installation at this smart city science and technology exhibition hall in Heze City as it aptly demonstrates how Christie’s state-of-the-art laser projection technology blends in perfectly with the facility’s overall theme. The end result exceeded our expectations and we are thrilled with how the APS Series delivered outstanding and highly-immersive images.”
Zhang noted that his engineering team took one week to install and calibrate all 17 Christie LWU650-APS laser projectors using a distributed hardware integration system developed entirely in-house by Dicction. The projected visuals on each wall covered 24 square metres, while the floor projections occupied 64 square metres.
April Qin, director of sales, enterprise, Christie China, commented: “The APS series is a high-value and affordable laser projector that provides reliability, performance and long operational life. We are delighted that Dicction has accomplished an innovative four-sided CAVE installation at this smart city science and technology exhibition hall using the APS series, which proves that affordable projectors don’t need to sacrifice quality. We look forward to more creative deployments of these projectors in venues beyond classrooms, boardrooms and conference rooms.”
