Dataton takes visitors on a journey at Dutch Maritime Museum
Dataton's WATCHOUT has been deployed as multi-image technology in the newly refurbished Het Scheepvaartmuseum, the National Maritime Museum in Amsterdam.
The National Maritime Museum now consists of a series of themed and interactive exhibits, all of them featuring AV, lighting and network design by local integration firm Rapenburg Plaza. Most impressive among these exhibits is the 'Voyage at Sea' - a five-room, 20-minute immersive walk-through cinematic experience in which museum visitors are taken on a journey through five centuries of Dutch maritime history.
The centerpiece of 'Voyage at Sea' is a 360-degree, oval-shaped projection which uses ten edge-blended projectors with wide-angle lenses, along with 'snap-on' cartridges custom-designed by Rapenburg Plaza for additional image filtering.
Jorinde Wiegel, Rapenburg Plaza said, "Because of the way they had to be mounted and distributed in the room, it was impossible to create an equal physical overlap between each of the ten projectors. So the edge-blending required a great deal of tweaking, including some adaptation of the actual content itself."
Fredrik Svahnberg, Marketing & Communications Manager, Dataton said, "The 'Voyage at Sea' is a great example of how our WATCHOUT technology can be used not only to create a wonderful immersive visitor experience, but also to tame a less-than-ideal projection and display setup when such an arrangement is necessitated by the nature of the original space.
