projectiondesign® releases world’s first ‘panoramic’ DLP® projector.

A unique projector designed for advanced meeting rooms and collaborative spaces in which users are sharing a variety of graphical image content both locally and remotely, the F35 panorama boasts an exceptionally wide image aspect ratio of 21:9 or 2.37:1. In an office environment with an average ceiling height, this enables images as wide as 4m (13’) to be created without the need for edge-blending the output of two separate projectors. Furthermore, the F35 panorama’s flexible input configuration means that it can project simultaneous side-by-side images from two separate high resolution sources, fill an entire screen from a single source, or simply set up a video conference call next to a computer presentation

Sizo in and outdoor signing heeft in opdracht van winkelcentrum The Wall langs de A2 een zeer opvallende reclamedoek geplaatst. Over een lengte van 600 meter is een doek met alle logo’s van de in het winkelcentrum gevestigde winkelketens gemonteerd. Het doek is niet alleen het langste van Nederland maar is ook een technische innovatie omdat het de golvende lijn van de geluidswal volgt. Het doek valt s’avonds goed op door de verlichting met behulp van 200 LED spots. Deze energie zuinige spots hebben een lichtopbrengst van 500watt, maar gebruiken slechts 35watt. Op deze wijze wordt veel energie bespaart. Reclamedoeken vallen goed op en zijn snel te plaatsen. Door de duurzaamheid van de materialen kunnen deze doeken vele jaren blijven hangen.

Samsung komt met agressievere aanpak tabletmarkt.

Samsung is van plan een agressieve aanpak op de tabletmarkt toe te passen om van tablets de nieuwe groeifactor te maken binnen de mobiele afdeling van het bedrijf. Dat heeft Robert Yi, hoofd Investor Relations bij Samsung, laten weten aan analisten en investeerders, zo meldt the Wall Street Journal. Samsung is al enkele kwartalen de grootste smartphonefabrikant wat betreft het aantal verkochte toestellen. Het laat bijvoorbeeld Apple achter zich, terwijl Samsung vrij laat groot geworden is.
Op de tabletmarkt wil de Zuid-Koreaanse fabrikant nu dezelfde strategie toepassen. "Samsung richt zich op het uitbreiden van de verkoop van tablets in het vierde kwartaal zodat het de nieuwe groeifactor wordt in onze mobiele afdeling", aldus Yi. Op de tabletmarkt is Samsung nog geen grote speler. Apple blijft de markt met de iPad domineren, maar Samsung gaat vanaf het vierde kwartaal dus een agressievere aanpak toepassen.

ING Belgium can give you a 270-deg projection experience.

Optoma Europe has supplied EX785 projectors for two ambiance projection room installations at the ING Bank in Belgium. ING Bank required the upgrade of two substantial meeting rooms to provide 270-degree ambience projection to help transform the interior experience. In total, 30 EX785 XGA projectors were installed in two rooms. Edge-blending technology produces an image that is over 20 metres wide blended across three sides of the rooms. This provided the ability to create a multifunctional fully-immersive projection experience. In autumn 2012 ING Bank in Belgium decided to upgrade two of their existing meeting rooms for 270 degree ambience projection. Critical to the design brief was the ability to realise the ambience vision within incredibly tight throw distance constraints and the design requirement that off axis projection was needed to avoid shadowing the image. The contractor and AV integrator AV Line, designed and installed two multifunctional AV rooms for ING and were further contracted to create two ambience projection systems. The museum installation company Wave provided additional blending expertise.
