AV Concepts Breaks Industry Record for 3D Holographic Projection
LAS VEGAS–AV Concepts ( www.avconcepts.com ) is helping high profile Corporate VIP’s get an eyeful by installing the largest 3D holographic projection in history. On a surface spanning nearly 2,000 square feet, guests were taken into the 3D holographic experience, while VIP’s interacted with 3D holographic presentations in a live event. No 3D glasses were necessary.
In preparation for this record breaking installation, AV Concepts constructed a test rig inside the San Diego Convention Center. Joe Russo, Director of Technology, explained, “The unique nature of this particular rig structure required several engineering revisions to support the incredible 100 foot wide stage. Working with truss and rigging design engineers, the proper system was developed to accommodate the massive frame needed to support the holographic screen.”
AV Concepts was selected by one of the world’s largest and most prestigious production companies as both a technical and creative partner for this highly complex event. To create one of the most exciting pre-scripted moments, AV Concepts produced an on-site high-definition video shoot with VIP executives who were filmed and converted into holograms for a live, on-stage interaction with the CEO during his presentation.
President of AV Concepts, Nick Smith stated, “This record breaking installation, speaks volumes to what AV Concepts delivers every day, and that’s to be the leader in implementing the most innovative technology, while also providing our clients with the best quality of service. Our ability to provide cutting edge technology and solutions help our clients better connect with their respective audience, creating memorable experiences.”
For a flawless visual presentation, AV Concepts used 14 Christie HD18 projectors, controlled by 4 Christie Vista Spyder systems. Additionally, AV Concepts’ new 4-camera high definition camera package was used with two additional robotic cameras for specialty pick up shots.
One of the world’s most advanced technology demonstration theaters is located within AV Concepts’ San Diego Office to support Musion 3D holographic consultation, development, and live demonstrations, in addition to virtual 3D Scenery and projection mapping applications.
