The setting
Mishkat Interactive Centre for Atomic and Renewable Energy is in Saudi Arabia. It was developed to counteract the country's current reliance on oil and gas. The aim was to use engaging technology to plant the seed of knowledge that will inspire the next generation of Saudi energy innovators.
The challenge
The centre had to engage children and teach them about energy. Its exhibit has children moving plinths (round stands) in front of a large screen.
Projection had to work with that. If the projector sits too far back, the children cast shadows on the image as they work.
What we did
We worked alongside interactive experience specialists formula D_. We supplied and integrated the audio-visual equipment for a large exhibit.
The hardware included ultra-short throw projectors from Christie, which sit very close to the screen. The audio came from Frenetik PoE loudspeakers (powered over the same network cable that carries the signal).
The outcome
The exhibit gives the children a large, shadow-free screen to work with.
