Integration firm DJ Willrich has installed Digital Projection’s HIGHlite Laser II projector at the British Music Experience (BME) in Liverpool, UK.
The BME chronicles British music history from 1945 to present day. It consists of eight zones recounting different eras in British music, using costumes, instruments, performance and memorabilia.
It reopened earlier this year after relocating from its previous home in The O2 Arena in London to the historic Cunard Building in Liverpool.
DJ Willrich were enlisted to carry out a complete overhaul of all the content and technology, which had become outdated since its original installation in 2009.
For the main stage show, a stunning life sized projection of Boy George, giving a five-minute custom-produced performance, DJ Willrich selected the HIGHlite Laser II, a specially designed long-life projection solution.
The projector is powered by the 7thSense Delta Nano-SDI media server, and is capable of producing over 20,000 hours of illumination. It is designed to deliver a solid-state laser of up to 13,000 lumens and also features edge blending technology and multi-projector tiling, as well as control management software that allows multiple projectors to be operated through a single system.
Josh Miller, director of DJ Willrich Ltd, says: “The projection technology used for the London BME had become dated. We needed the projected video of Boy George to be bright and punchy - visitors get really close to the display so it had to be stunning from all angles and distances. Digital Projection’s HIGHlite Laser II was the best choice to help us achieve this.”
In addition to the HIGHlite Laser II, two Digital Projection E-Vision 8500 laser projectors and eight E-Vision Laser 6500 projectors were installed.
