Copenhagen ’s IMAX Tycho Brahe Planetarium, Denmark 's
most advanced center for popularizing astronomy and
space research, has selected Medialon Manager as the
show control system for the entire planetarium. The
Planetarium uses the power of Medialon Manager to
monitor, control and do show programming, thus easing
the workload of personnel running shows and exhibitions
from 9:30 am to 10 pm.
The Planetarium currently has two main forms of
entertainment, IMAX films and Digital 3D movies.
Many of the IMAX films are produced by MacGillivray
Freeman Films, the most experienced independent producer
and distributor of special-venue motion pictures in the
world. The Planetarium currently shows 10 different IMAX
films including the 90-minute “Rolling Stones at the
MAX.”
The 3D movies are projected using 4 digital Barco Galaxy
12+ projectors and 7th Sense HD players to achieve a
world’s first: a 26-meter wide, full stereoscopic 3D
projection on the Tycho Brahe Space Theatre’s 24-meter
dome. This configuration, which displays 1920 x 1080 HD
images, immerses audiences in breathtaking stereoscopic
experiences. 3D titles include “S.O.S. Planet,” and
“Bugs 3D.”
Medialon controls the running of both film formats and
also takes care of light and sound.
An upcoming exhibition will also be controlled by
Manager and feature Medialon MIP digital media playback
both supplied by Informationsteknik Sweden.
