Attending CeBIT 2004, the biggest computer and telecom
tradefair worldwide, you couldn't overlook the
impressive Deutsche Telekom stand in Hall 26. With
nearly 325.000 Visitors at the CeBIT, and ca. 210.000
Visitors on the Deutsche Telekom Stand, it is the
largest stand at the fair.
q~bus Mediatektur GmbH from Berlin made the design and
technical architecture of the complete stand with its
very spacious and high-tech feeling to give each of the
Deutsche Telekom four divisions a place to show their
products. All the Audio visual and Show Control
equipment was delivered and installed by
Gahrens+Batterman from Berlin and the company ICT. The
Show Control design and programming was done by
Ground-Zero.
The T-Online booth consisted of three individual stages
each of with respectively controlled by a Medialon
Manager PRO system. Each system controlled two
Q-Players, a q~bus developed PC based uncompressed
HD-Video player, one VMOD Hard disk video player, one
Folsom video switcher, five Macromedia Director PC's,
one settopbox, live video streams, three TFT screens and
one Barco R18 projector. Some of the computers were also
connected with the Internet in order to demonstrate the
new T-Online Internet portal. The Medialon Manager was
controlled by cue lists, directly read from Excel
spreadsheets using the new SQL-MXM.
As well as the three stages, Ground-Zero was also
responsible for the control of the T-Com stage on the
Deutsche Telekom stand, at which Ground-Zero programmed
a Barco Event Manager with two D320 PL and three
Viewscapes. The D320PL were connected with a Barco
LED-Wall I-Lite 3 (Resolution 1580 x 724), the
Viewscapes with three SplitCubes (each Resolution
1024x768). Also connected were some DMX-Channels, 4
HiRes DualHead-PCs, a Video-Editing-Place with a
AnalogWay Seamless Switcher and a Sony Live Video desk.
At the Center of the Stand another Barco Events
Controller was connected to eight Video-PCs, four
Harddiskplayers and a movable System of LED-Walls on an
oval Rail, covering most of the Stand. This Part was
programmed by Frank Fischer from Gahrens+Batterman. |
