Digital Projection illuminates the facade of the Jhansi Fort

To tell the story of Rani Lakshmi Bai, a light and sound show was created that showed a 270º structural projection design. For this, Eight Titan Laser devices were used 33000 4K-UHD Digital Projection.

A light and sound show, which includes eight projectors Titan Laser 33000 4K-UHD ofDigital Projection, Immerses visitors in the life of a national heroine at the historic Jhansi Fort, north of India.

The experience, of 30 minutes long, uses cutting-edge projection technology to show the life and death of Lakshmi Bai, to wounds (reina) de Jhansi, of 22 years, who died fighting the British East India Company during the Indian Rebellion (1857–1858).

for this show, the systems integrator PAN Intellecom has created a projection screen 270 degrees and 83 meters wide walls of Jhansi Fort, located on the top of a hill, which was originally built in the 17th century and witnessed tough battles during the Rebellion.

PAN Intellecom was also in charge of generating the content of the show, using a mix of projection designs, lasers, luces Led, lighting fixtures and a surround sound system to bring to life the courage of Lakshmi Bai during the siege of Jhansi Fort.

The selection of the Digital Projection team was based on a system “in which quality and price prevailed”, explains Harbir Singh, director de PAN Intellecom. “The Titan Laser projector was used 33000 4K-UHD con 33.000 lights due to the large screen size and the high demands on brightness. The audience sits close to the projected surface and the 4K-UHD resolution is panoramic to offer a great viewing experience”.

In addition to the size of the fortress, the projectors had to work with its facade, which has been damaged and affected by the weather during the last 400 years. “Being a historical fortress, built hundreds of years ago, The challenge was to ensure the safety and integrity of the structure and still offer a spectacle that could fascinate the public.”, Singh adds..

For installation at Jhansi Fort, three Titan Laser were stacked in the center and three on the right, with two more on the left side. Equipped with Digital Projection zoom lenses 2,56 – 4,16:1, The projectors have a long throw distance, which makes them very flexible.

“Digital Projection equipment is the ideal solution for the audiovisual system, which also includes a Xeon processor, software Dataton Watchout for mixing and lighting recording, a Medialon server as the overall show controller and a surround sound audio system that includes 12 Dual 12 speakers″ and four Dual subwoofers 15 inches", comment Sankalp Srivastava, Project AGM for PAN Intellecom.

The Digital Projection team assisted PAN Intellecom throughout the entire project, offering advice on projectors, lenses and their positioning, in addition to during installation and commissioning.

“As a creative director, it is like a dream come true to narrate the story of Rani Lakshmi Bai through a show with a 270º structural projection design., the first time something similar has been done in the country”, comment Aman Arora, creative-technical director of the project. “Authentic color reproduction of the Titan Laser projector 33000 4K-UHD facilitated the work of the creative and content team, who faced the great challenge of showing uniform colors on a façade with stones that have lost their color irregularly over time”.
