Digital Projection’s TITAN Laser 33000 4K-UHD laser projectors are at the heart of a major AV upgrade to the Valencia Conference Centre (Palacio de Congresos), in Spain. Installed as part of a digital modernisation project funded by the European Union’s NextGenerationEU programme, the technology was specified and supplied by Estalella Audiovisual and integrated by Telefónica Tech.
At the heart of the installation, two TITAN 33000 projectors perform an edge blend across a 15m screen in the main auditorium of the Norman Foster-designed venue. A third TITAN 33000 is used in single projection mode in one of the convention centre’s main congress rooms.
To ensure consistency across the edge-blended image, Estalella carried out colour matching using a Qalif spectrometer, as well as brightness matching between the units. All warping and blending was done using Digital Projection’s Projector Controller II software, powered by its Nexus technology, which also allowed for commissioning and fine-tuning of the system.
Delivering up to 31,000 lumens of brightness at 4K-UHD resolution and a contrast ratio of 18,000:1, the 3-chip TITAN Laser 33000 boasts in-chassis warp, edge blending and geometry correction.
The new projection infrastructure plays a key role in the centre’s wider AV ecosystem upgrade, which also includes new camera and production systems and a building-wide NDI-over-IP network.
Carlos Bonet, business development and marketing manager at Estalella Audiovisual, commented: “From the outset, the client asked us to deliver a high-quality, perfectly blended solution in the auditorium. The TITANs were a clear choice, not only for their performance but also for their ability to deliver precision control without the need for external tools.”
Juan Agustí Pedro-Viejo, sales consultant, digital spaces, Telefónica Tech, added: “Technology is not just a means – it’s a tool for transforming the way people experience a space. At the Palacio de Congresos de Valencia, we have installed systems – most impactfully the large-format screen, which represents the cutting edge of projection and video technology that guarantee the highest quality in audio-visual technology.”
