Christie technologies freshen up learning at Luanda Science Center

Christie technologies are powering immersive educational experiences at the Luanda Science Center (CCL) in Angola. The CCL, built on the site of a former soap factory, features audio and visual technology inside and out to engage visitors and inspire future generations.

An auditorium at the CCL has been equipped with two Christie Griffyn 4K35-RGB pure laser projectors and Vive Audio speakers to deliver educational content, while eight Christie D20WU-HS 1DLP laser projectors power a permanent outdoor video mapping attraction on the building’s facade. The project was carried out by Christie partner Proavit and consultant Muse for Athena Swiss AG.

The 146-seat auditorium features a 180 square metre (1937.5 square feet) screen that measures 15.5 metres (50 feet) wide by 11.65 metres (38 feet) high, totalling more than twelve million pixels. Special effects include vibration, water and air, which are synchronized with the on-screen content. The auditorium is also equipped with Dolby Atmos with 32 audio channels, powered by 34 Christie Vive Audio speakers and nine Powersoft Quattrocanali series amplifiers.

Outside the CCL, eight Christie D20WU-HS 1DLP laser projectors were installed discreetly in ventilated watertight cabinets to map onto the facade of the building and create a 114 metre (374 feet) wide by 11 metre (36 feet) high canvas. This nighttime projection was created by design studio Ocubo and aims to bring learning to life, highlighting topics such as Angolan culture, the human body, planets, fauna, flora and science.
