Christie projection and integrated solutions are delighting visitors at the National Taiwan Science Education Center’s (NTSEC) new immersive attraction with stunning visuals featuring ultra-high-definition 8K resolution.

Known as The Black Box, it is the first immersive theatre in Taiwan aimed at promoting technology, academic research and creative works by local artists and content creators. It consists of a large L-shaped projection space measuring 13m in width and height, with the visuals powered by Christie 4K10-HS 1DLP laser projectors, Christie Pandoras Box Software, Christie AirScan and Christie Mystique automated camera-based alignment and recalibration solution. The installation and commissioning of all Christie solutions in this venue was undertaken by Christie’s longstanding partner, Dacoms Technology.

“We recognised an opportunity to support Taiwan’s vibrant creative community by collaborating with NTSEC to establish The Black Box immersive theatre,” Dacoms Technology executive vice president Terence Lee says.

“This collaboration provides content creators and artists with an accessible platform for research and experimentation that can be appreciated by visitors of all ages. It sets the stage for them to showcase their work on a global scale.”

To ensure visuals of the highest quality, NTSEC selected the high-performance Christie 4K10-HS projector. Boasting 10,000 lumens, 4K UHD resolution and long-lasting laser illumination in a compact footprint, it allows for flexible installation, even in tight spaces. The 4K10-HS is also equipped with Christie BoldColor Technology to accurately reproduce colourful images without sacrificing brightness, a feature highly valued by content creators.

The playback and processing of displayed content are adeptly managed by the versatile and powerful Christie Pandoras Box Software, capable of handling 2D or 3D projects, while Christie AirScan brings multimedia displays to life with interactivity and touch-free control. Additionally, Christie Mystique seamlessly aligns, stacks, and blends the multi-projector array in minutes with unsurpassed accuracy. The outcome is an exceptional presentation of engaging contents like ‘Our Blue Planet in Fantasy’ and ‘Guess Who Am I?’.
