October 31, 2007—Lightscape Technologies Inc., a provider of innovative lighting design solutions, advanced lighting products and customized energy management solutions, has announced that the company has provided LED lighting solutions to the New World Centre (“NWC”) in Hong Kong for the promotion of the 2008 Olympics.
The NWC is an upscale multi-use complex situated on Hong Kong’s Victoria Harbor. NWC features a gross floor area of approximately 2.5 million square feet, a 6-story shopping mall, two office towers, a 518-room serviced apartment tower and a 543-room hotel. NWC’s exterior facade features an LED lighting display from the 4th to 14th floors.
The project involved the installation of the Lightscape Multimedia and Video Show Control System at the NWC. Lightscape’s system consists of PC-based software and LED controller hardware which enables the authoring, control and playback of intricate, large-scale lighting shows. The system is a fully integrated solution that combines various processors, video graphics decoders, solid state electronics and sophisticated built-in intelligence.
In addition, Lightscape’s lighting design team authored the lighting shows to play on NWC’s pre- existing LED lighting hardware on the building’s exterior facade. The new lighting show content began to play on October 13, 2007 in conjunction with Hong Kong’s ceremony to promote the 300-Day Countdown to the Beijing 2008 Olympic Games. This content, which played for 10 days on the NWC facade from October 13-23, consisted of wording, graphics and patterns including the slogans “Hong Kong Riding High with Olympic Spirit” and “300 Days to Go for 2008 Olympics.”
