Electrosonic has provided audio-visual equipment for a range of exhibit galleries at Discovery Park of America.
The discovery centre in Union City, Tennessee, features more than 70,000ft2 (6,503m2) of exhibition space across three levels and the ten exhibits cover nature, science, technology, history and art.
A ‘Regional History’ gallery includes a simulation theatre which gives visitors the chance to experience an earthquake along the New Madrid fault, which formed in the area about 200 years ago. Electrosonic installed 270º wraparound screens and five ceiling-mounted Christie DS+6K-M projectors to deliver the visuals, which were sourced from a 7thSense server. Special effects audio and tremors simulate the earthquake for the standing audience.
In the ‘Native Americans’ gallery, Electrosonic installed four 46-inch LCD monitors for an exhibit in which a holographic storyteller recounts the legends and beliefs of the area’s indigenous people. A Pepper’s Ghost effect is used to bring the mythical figure to life.
The company also provided a number of Samsung 32- and 55-inch LCD displays for the various galleries, along with Innovox Audio speakers for individual exhibits. The entire facility is controlled by a Medialon system programmed by Electrosonic.
