INITION installed 10 full HD Canon projectors with synchronous 10-channel playback into the ground floor marketing suite of London’s South Bank Tower

INITION recently blended together 10 full HD projectors with synchronous

10 channel playback – located on the ground floor marketing suite of

London’s South Bank Tower – giving prospective buyers a realistic, 360°

panoramic representation of what they might expect to see from the high

value, premium apartments on the upper levels.

“The show apartment is situated on the lower floors of the tower,

however, the building’s key selling point are the views which are not yet

accessible as the upper floors are still under construction,” explained

Stuart Cupit, technical director and co-founder of INITION.

INITION was given timelapse footage with which the company

recreated the impressive views from the building’s upper levels using a

huge rear projection display.

“This installation was technically challenging and ambitious,” Stuart

said. “L3 Creative Projects custom designed a 1:1 mock-up of the show

apartment’s window façade which would provide the area upon which

the timelapse and real-time footage was to be projected. This simulated

the experience of looking out of the windows from the upper levels of

the building.”

For the projection itself, INITION integrated five Harkness Translite

Grey rear projection surfaces mounted on custom built-frames (creating

a 14m wide and 9600 x 2060 pixels surface) into the ‘window’.

However, the 15m x 3m space available for the control room was

located behind the window façade and was extremely narrow, resulting

in a short throw distance of less than 2m.

“With this in mind, we selected 10 HD Canon XEED WUX400ST digital

media projectors which overcome this issue,” said Stuart. “At the time of

the project’s installation, these projectors were the first to arrive in the UK.”

To ensure frame synchronisation between all 10 projectors, INITION

integrated the use of 10 Brightsign XD230 networked media players.

Crestron software was also installed to control and monitor the

projectors, whilst iPads were equipped with Brightsign Author and PJlink

software respectively, to allow the client to wirelessly alternate between

different views and sequences and control the projectors remotely.

Using an iPad, staff can now show Northeast, Northwest, Southeast

and Southwest views, morning, daytime or night time, as well as dusk to

dawn timelapse sequences capturing London’s iconic skyline. Finally, a

NUC PC was used to control the whole system via a dedicated network.
