Winners: Panasonic
- Pioneering Immersive Projection: Panasonic is pioneering the creation of incredible immersive experiences through the use of projectors. Its range of 4K projectors, up to 50,000 lumens, and additional associated technology innovations, such as its Real Time Tracking Projection Mapping system, have been used to fulfill the public’s growing desire for immersive entertainment, edu-tainment and art-tainment experiences.
- Creating the biggest pictures: The most immersive experiences often require large scale images, surrounding and filling the vision of visitors with the content. This is achieved by seamlessly blending images from multiple projectors to look like one single image. Panasonic has the most sophisticated and simple to use blending solutions including Geometry Manager Pro Software, Geometric adjustment for 3D mapping (ET-UK20), Gradation Smoother and Edge Blending Black Level Adjustment. https://business.panasonic.co.uk/visual-system/products-and-accessories/technology/on-board-geometric-adjustment
- Resolution for every need: Panasonic offers the whole range of projector technologies and resolutions to enable users to create the immersive experience they require. From LCD Projectors with 4k input capability for the budget constrained, to 1-Chip and 3-Chip DLP Projectors with pixel shifting technologies to Native 4K Chipset in 3-DLP projector models for the ultimate in high resolution images.
- Invisible is important: Although projectors are an essential element in creating an immersive environment, they also need to remain an invisible technology, so as not to distract the audience from the immersive impact of the image. Panasonic focuses on producing the quietest and most compact projectors in all its ranges, alongside an incredibly wide variety of specialist Ultra Short Throw, Periscope and Fisheye lenses to ensure projectors can be easily hidden in ceilings or positioned in the most difficult of spaces.
- Reliability: In most attraction and entertainment venues projectors could be operating intensively for long periods. All Panasonic’s laser projector models contain built-in features to prevent black screen time. For example, all have a multi drive laser light source, so that should one light source fail, the projector can still operate. All laser models also feature a fail-safe input system ensuring that if an input fails, it will switch to a back-up without loss of image. All projectors come with a standard 3-year warranty or a guarantee of 20,000 hours of non-maintenance operation in normal mode – whichever comes first. Warranty extensions are available for up to 5-years and customised warranty plans are possible. Remote maintenance solutions are also available, with Panasonic monitoring the performance of the projectors remotely and providing servicing and maintenance as required.
