The Most Powerful Weapon in the World

Having worked on numerous projects throughout the world with Strategic Communication Laboratories over the last decade, we were SCL's first and obvious choice when it came to helping them create a working model of one of their Opcentres (The Most Powerful Weapon in the World) for this year's DSEi show at ExCel (Defence Systems & Equipment International).

Throughout the five day show SCL ran scenarios detailing how the Opcentre would deal with such events as they unfolded. Creating the detailed high resolution graphics for any one of these scenarios was equivalent to what we create for the average motion picture, but as SCL ran three different scenarios twice a day, we in effect created three films worth of content!!

Technically Speaking:
Their stand area was an impressive 2,100 sqm (60x35m), it took five days & a crew of 31 to build, with 21 to man & operate throughout the show, plus 8 SCL staff. It contained a 12 screen media feed, a 4x3m LED presenter video wall, 62 computer screens, a large 6x4m rear projected screen plus an enormous 10x4m Operations Overview Screen, which ran at a resolution higher than film 3,500 x 1050 pixels. We also centrally controlled 12 plasma screens that were arranged around the exhibition floor, which displayed movie style trailers for each of the scenarios. The stand also took two days to disassemble.

Result:
Nigel Oakes (CEO) was delighted with the final result, and quoted that the stand had been an even greater success than they'd originally expected. The stand also won the honour of "Best of Show",

But if all that wasn't impressive enough, on exactly the same days we created an equivalent stand for ESAB in Germany. more info...
