News Article: Koishikawa XROSS Digital Museum's VR Theater Revolutionises Immersive VR Experiences
In the heart of Japan, at TOPPAN Koishikawa, a leading global provider of integrated solutions, a groundbreaking immersive VR Theater has been unveiled. This innovative space, part of the KOISHIKAWA XROSS Digital Museum, is designed to transport visitors into hyper-realistic, 360-degree environments.
At the core of this VR Theater lies a 20m-wide and 5m-high Crystal LED curved LED screen, capable of displaying 16K ultra-high definition VR imagery. To achieve this, the museum's AV system is centred around a PC server developed by TOPPAN, which outputs eight signals routed through Lightware's MX2-48X48-HDMI20-A-R matrix switcher to the video wall processor.
The choice of Lightware's matrix switcher was strategic. With HDMI 2.0 support and an impressive 18 Gbps bandwidth, it could handle the demanding technical requirements of the project. Its non-blocking 4K 60P RGB 4:4:4 video distribution and large 64×64 matrix were unparalleled, as no domestic Japanese manufacturer could meet these specifications at the time.
The VR Theater also includes a Leyard ceiling LED screen and a LED floor screen, further enhancing the immersive experience. The RGBlink X8 processor, with 24 inputs, handles the 16K projections on the Crystal LED screen in the XROSS Digital Museum.
The integration of such a complex system presented several challenges, but Lightware's MX2's non-blocking switching and reliable 18 Gbps performance played a key role in overcoming these hurdles. MTC Japan, the project's AV integration partner, faced a significant challenge due to the lack of such a matrix switcher. However, based on a positive experience with the MX2 in previous projects, MTC was confident that it would be the ideal choice for the XROSS Digital Museum project.
The performance of Lightware's MX2-48X48-HDMI20-A-R matrix switcher was crucial for creating the immersive environment desired in the XROSS Digital Museum. Its high-level video distribution capability was a game changer for the project, making it possible to manage an uninterrupted, high-bandwidth signal flow without compromising quality.
This installation marks a significant milestone in the realm of immersive VR experiences, showcasing the potential of cutting-edge technology to revolutionise the way we interact with digital content. The Koishikawa XROSS Digital Museum's VR Theater is a testament to the power of collaboration between innovative minds and advanced technology, pushing the boundaries of what is possible in the world of VR.
