Large format projection, latest-generation sound, and language interpreting for the biggest analytics event in Spain.

Speed, flexibility, quality and trust are the most appreciated values in an analytics process. This leading analytics event held in Spain needed to project an image that was in line with these principals.

A spectacular projection onto 108 square metres took centre stage at the event, which was held in the North Convention Centre of the Feria de Madrid. There was a giant 18 x 6 metre screen with multi-projections from two high-performance Christie 4K30 projectors.

By way of following the “Analytics City” , event concept, the stage backdrop was based on a general view of the city. In timer mode, it kept changing from early-morning to night in accordance with each presentation and with the remaining time left for each speaker.

This view of buildings and typical street furniture was composed of 4 windows, which at times included retransmission of the event, PowerPoint and Keynote presentations, sponsor logos, and social networks. A programmed Watchout system and a Barco EC-200 video management controller, were used for distributing the content, changing the screen numerous times, and combining different PiP modes to provide adequate communication between the graphics and video content, the presentations and the live retransmission. A total of 74 video presets were managed from the Barco EC-200.

Other services provided by Sono for the plenary session were:

A latest-generation sound system with a L’Acoustics Kara line array, a Digico mixing desk and Shure 8 wireless microphones

A language interpreting system with 400 digital receivers

Live retransmission with rack and 3 cameras

Sono also was entrusted with setting up, managing and renting of audiovisual equipment for the Breakout sessions and with the live interview set:
