Medium and Solutions AV bring big screen 3D sports to London pub
April, 8th 2011: Medium UK and USL install LG 3D big screen proejctor in a London pub, bringing 3D sports to customers.
The Punch Pub Company has kicked off a trial of 3D television for its patrons using the unique LG CF3D projector from Medium UK. The pilot installation is in the Raynes Park Tavern in south-west London, showing cinema 3D images on a huge 2.4 metre screen – equivalent to a 100” television set.
The system, including the special silver screen and a Sky+ HD satellite decoder, was designed and installed by specialist supplier USL Audio Visual, the pub division of Solutions AV; in partnership with Medium UK.
A long-time AV integration partner of Punch Taverns, USL is also conducting additional 3D projection installations in the pilot. Two further installations have been completed in cities in the North East and in Scotland.
“When it comes to gaining the full effect from 3D, size does matter,” said general manager Matt Dunne. “The screens offer our guests the closest experience possible to actually being at the ground and give that extra sense of drama and excitement.”
“The launch could not have gone better,” says Greg Hughes, director of Solutions AV. “Our brief is to always keep our customers abreast of the latest technology and developments and 3D projection was a perfect fit for Punch Taverns, with our expertise in Audio Visual Solutions and with Mediums support we were able to assess the best sites and put together a great 3D Solution for Punch Taverns. The 3D images are fantastic and really bring the sporting events to life.”
“This installation at Punch Taverns illustrates the rising popularity of 3D technology in commercial environments’ and the rise in customer expectation for 3D entertainment. With a greater range of 3D products from LG and other vendors due out this year, we can expect 3D technology to be a key growth area in 2011” said Mike Clayton, FPD Product Manager of Medium UK.
