- KAUST campus, Saudi Arabia
The setting
The King Abdullah University of Science and Technology (KAUST) is a university in Saudi Arabia. The Museum of Science & Technology in Islam (MOSTI) occupies part of its campus. Its exhibits show the contributions Muslim scholars made to the field over the years.
The challenge
The museum wanted to tell its stories in more interactive and impactful ways. The designers, formula D_, were contracted to design it and needed a partner to help specify and integrate the equipment across many exhibits.
What we did
We helped specify and integrate the equipment. For visuals, numerous Christie laser projectors run through the space with Christie's turnkey Pandoras Box media server (the system that plays the content to each projector).
We chose an individual Lenovo P330 workstation to power each kiosk, which is efficient and ultra-compact. Several Smart IP Genelec loudspeakers and a subwoofer carry the audio.
The outcome
We helped formula D_ specify and integrate the projection, media servers, kiosk computers and audio across the museum's exhibits.
