UK based system integrator Sysco has completed an audio-visual and IT installation at the newly-opened Darwin Centre at London's Natural History Museum.
Included within the £78 million extension is Sysco's 12m wide Climate Change Wall, a glass wall of high resolution screens displaying films and graphics, which visitors can interact with thanks to motion sensor technology.
Throughout the centre, audio commentary and sound effects are transmitted from a range of HD sources via a BSS Soundweb network, while a variety of NEC LCD displays and Panasonic and Mitsubishi projectors have been specified for the visuals.
All of this is housed on a mixture of Apple Macs, Windows PCs and DVS Blade video servers.
