Orlando International Airport Unveils Cutting-Edge Media Experience in New South Terminal
Orlando, FL – The newly inaugurated South Terminal Complex at Orlando International Airport has introduced a state-of-the-art Experiential Media Environment (EME) designed to enhance the travel experience for its passengers. As part of its innovative offerings, the terminal features an impressive Windows On Orlando (WOO) video installation complemented by advanced sound technology from SoundTube.
The WOO installation is a striking element of the airport's new terminal, comprising three adjacent panoramic screens that form a 100-foot-long, 32-foot-tall digital display. This 31 x 33-foot triptych video wall, adorned with 4-foot mirror reveals, creates an expansive digital window for travellers passing through the terminal.
SoundTube’s SolidDrive SD-1G speakers have been meticulously integrated into the WOO feature to deliver high-quality ambient, multi-channel audio. These speakers ensure that the audio experience matches the visual splendour of the WOO installation, seamlessly blending into the glass panel architecture to create an immersive environment.
Neil Hahn, Vice President of Hahn Integrated Systems, serves as the authorized representative for this project. He highlighted the reliability and suitability of the SoundTube speakers for the 24/7 operational demands of the airport. "The unique glass mount product with a commercial high-quality manufacture legacy made this a simple choice. The SD-1G has been very reliable and is used in a 24/7 operating airport," Hahn stated, praising the speakers’ integration and performance. The multi-channel audio feeds provided by these drivers, which are securely attached to the glass panels, enhance the overall sensory experience for passersby.
The new South Terminal Complex aims to offer a memorable and engaging experience for travelers and has raised the bar for airport amenities with its advanced audiovisual technology.
