Overview: Singapore Urban Redevelopment Board’s City Gallery

First opened on 27 January 1999, Singapore City Gallery is the only gallery in Singapore that tells the story of the nation’s planning efforts, showing its remarkable physical transformation – past, present and future. [1]

The Singapore City Gallery houses one of the world’s largest architectural models that shows a birds eye view of Singapore’s Central Area (Central Business District). Every hour, the large centerpiece model is illuminated with an impressive light and sound show

Projector Requirements

In a well lit environment, the projectors had to have a • high brightness output• the ability to be mounted in the ceiling• advanced warp and blend functionality to accurately map onto the

intricate models of Singapore’s Central Area.• Calibrated Colour & P7 Colour Matching to ensure consistency.

Local sales and support was also essential in this high-profile installation, and this was provided by Digital Projection’s Asia office.

Why Digital Projection were chosen

Digital Projection has a long history of providing Digital Projectors for some of the most high-profile events in the world.

The Titan range was chosen for this installation as it is a proven projector with the versatility for a wide range of installations.

Projector Requirements

With the project being outdoors, the projectors needed to have a high-lumen output and be easy to operate and install.

As this was an outdoor event, the projectors needed to be able to function in the high heat and humidity of Dubai. The Titan range fitted the bill perfectly, offering high brightness and the proven ability to function perfectly in an operating humidity of 20 to 80% thanks to its unique Liquid Cooled optical systems.

Why Digital Projection were chosen

Digital Projection have been chosen to provide the display technology for high profile events the world over. This, coupled with local and remote support, gave Lighthouse the confidence in choosing the Titan range of projectors for this event.
