What a Loving, and Beautiful World - ArtScience Museum on TEAMLABNET Channel
Light art festival at Marina Bay, ArtScience Museum on the right
Marking its 4th year, i Light Marina Bay (held from March 4 to 27) has been attracting attention from home and abroad as Asia's leading light art festival. The theme of 2016 was "In Praise of Shadows." Making full use of 17 Panasonic projectors (PT-DZ21K, luminance 20,000 lm), artistic projection mapping of teamLab's artwork "What a Loving and Beautiful World" on the huge lotus flower-shaped Artscience Museum exterior was achieved.
Hands-on projection mapping is offered, when each person chooses a particular character with their smartphone, a picture that represents the character will be projected to the building of Artscience Museum, making a magical performance of light that provides a sense of scale.(image)
Panasonic Group succeeded the world's first attempt to adjust projection mapping, which is projected more than 200 m away from the opposite side of the Singapore River, by using cameras. The achievement to complete the adjustment in just two days with Panasonic's solutions, which enable the adjustments of hue and brightness of multiple projectors by making excellent use of telephoto lens and cameras, has surprised members of teamLab and a rental company.
"I was blown away by projection mapping's vision of the world," "Sparkling world. Just like using magic," -- the competition of light emerging after the late sunset in Singapore has been fascinating visitors.

This subject is a promotional effort for museums in collaboration with teamLab. This included asking customers' opinion and highlighting the product appeal by a unique demonstration. After getting highly praised by not only the products but also its services, such as flexible business correspondence and technical support by SE.
A museum market is in a very important position in our entertainment business. Also, it is an essential market for the projector business. We have started introducing laser projectors, which do not require replacing lamps for 20,000 hours, so now is the crucial period.
We found out in the promotion process that teamLab belongs to PACE GALLERY, which is one of the three biggest galleries in the world, and that they are only artists who have been nominated in the Digital Art category, so inquiries about Digital Art around the world would go to teamLab. In addition, because 70% of teamLab's works use projectors, we determined that collaboration with team Lab would be very effective in capturing the museum market, and that we couldn't afford to miss out on this subject, therefore, we went ahead while involving business divisions and their members.
I was very pleased to see a lot of people enjoying i Light Marina Bay and FUTURE WORLD. I'd like to contribute further to the realization of "A Better Life, A Better World" through the visual systems business.Hirotatsu Asai, Entertainment Solution Group, PSSAP
