[Press Release]

AV Concepts ( www.avconcepts.com ) is helping high profile Corporate VIP’s get an eyeful by installing the largest 3D holographic projection in history. On a surface spanning nearly 2,000 square feet, guests were taken into the 3D holographic experience, while VIP’s interacted with 3D holographic presentations in a live event. No 3D glasses were necessary.

In preparation for this record breaking installation, AV Concepts constructed a test rig inside the San Diego Convention Center. Joe Russo, Director of Technology, explained, “The unique nature of this particular rig structure required several engineering revisions to support the incredible 100 foot wide stage. Working with truss and rigging design engineers, the proper system was developed to accommodate the massive frame needed to support the holographic screen.” ( http://www.avconcepts.com/about/press/breaks-holographic-record )

Musion Eyeliner is a unique high-definition video holographic projection system allowing spectacular freeform 3D hologram effects to be projected within a live stage setting using Peppers Ghost illusion. Eyeliner produces high resolution images that make them unmistakably real, which is what happened when Gorillaz & Madonna performed the opening number at the European MTV Awards. Musion Eyeliner is a specially developed foil that reflects images from a high-definition video projector, making it possible to show virtual images of variable sizes and distinct clarity.
