Denver Planetarium lowers cost of projector ownership with projectiondesign

19 Dicembre 2011

The cost of ownership associated with projectiondesign technology have been underlined by an installation in the Gates Planetarium at the Denver Museum of Nature and Science. Six of the Norwegian manufacturer projectiondesign's F32 series DLP projectors have been installed as part of a major technology upgrade of thePlanetarium, which holds 125 people and is used to screen a range of immersive films, some produced at the Museum itself.

Tim Nicholson, Exhibit Technology Manager and Senior System Developer at the Denver Museum of Nature and Science, explains: ?Our previous system was an 11-projector setup which proved unreliable and had an extremely high cost of ownership. The six F32 projectors have been blended together by our system integrator to form a seamless full-dome display of 360 degrees by 160 degrees, at a high resolution of 3,300 by 3,300 pixels.
