What information do you need to know before making the proposal/solution?

We know that everyone wants to know the price, but the price of our products is determined by many factors since most of our products are custom, so no ready price list. In order to fast understand what you need, can you send us an inquiry like this?

 

For example: I am really interested in your immersive projection products, we are a company in the USA and want to install some in my restaurant. It is about 50 meters long, and 5m in width. Projection size you can decide but the length should be not less than 20 meters. We want some content about SeaWorld because our place is all about the sea. Thank you.

What about the wall/floor material for the projection?

It’s recommended to choose a light-colored material with minimal reflectivity—pure white or light grey works best. the
common material is cement & plaster board

 

For optimal projection results, the surface should be free of any patterns or textures, as the projector will display content
directly onto it. 

 

There are no specific material requirements; you may use any commonly available material in your local market, as long as it
meets the above conditions. 

How to install the projection equipment ?

1) Install the projector in a suitable position. We will provide you with a hanger, which you need to fix on the ceiling with
screws.

 

2) Connect projectors, computers and other accessories through wires.


3) After completing the above 2 steps, we will carry out the edge blending steps. Our team can complete it through remote
control.

In general, installation instructions for each project need to be specified on a project-by-project basis. The above is for
reference only.
