Chris GS Series laser projectors have lit up the Incheon Metropolitan City Museum, the first public museum in South Korea.

The 11 Christie DWU630-GS 1DLP laser projectors deliver lifelike visuals in two newly established immersive experience spaces within the facility.

Created under the theme of “Incheon Running Through Time”, it comprises several immersive media art and immersive experience contents that seek to highlight the history, culture, economic and social development of Incheon and its historic Jemulpo district.

“The immersive experience hall and Jemulpo Photo Studio are the latest initiatives by Incheon Metropolitan City Museum to inject exciting and interactive content using state-of-the-art projection technology to showcase the rich history, culture and economic growth of Incheon to both local residents and foreigners alike,” Mega Link chief executive Chul-Ho Park says.

“The Christie GS Series is well-suited for this project due to its small footprint, low weight, quiet operation and long-life laser illumination that ensures reliable, virtually maintenance-free operation. Guests will be impressed with the image quality and colour reproduction that the GS delivers in these new exhibition spaces.”‌

Another highlight is a visual presentation titled “Incheon, where the land meets the sky and sea”, where visitors are transported to a world of visual splendour as they witness the city’s transformation into a world-class air, sea and land transport hub in stunning detail. The projections feature a breathtaking display of Incheon’s iconic landmarks, as well as the Incheon International Airport and the Port of Incheon.

Christie sales manager, Korea, enterprise, Paul Lee says that the team is delighted that the museum has selected the Christie solution: “Christie’s advanced projection systems such as the GS Series are designed for high-usage environments such as museums, enabling these venues to reinvent themselves and inspire visitors in extraordinary ways.”

Featuring laser illumination, the Christie GS Series eliminates the need for lamp and filter replacements, providing 20,000 hours of low-cost operation. Available in various brightness options up to 14,250 lumens, the GS Series produces an incredible 4,000,000:1 full on/off contrast ratio with Christie RealBlack technology that makes visuals pop off the screen.
