Systems Integration Asia — February-March 2018

HONG KONG: Media-Go has been a

reliable partner for the HKSAR government

for years where it helped the government

to accomplish a number of key projects

including the Tamar Central Government

Complex, Civil Aviation Department

Headquarters, Hong Kong Police College

and more. In September 2017, Media-Go

completed another remarkable project in

relation to the Hong Kong Marine

Department Training Centre.

The Marine Department Training Centre

located at Government Dockyard provides

professional maritime training to

departmental ofcers. It has traditional

lecture rooms tted with full audiovisual

teaching aids, and there are also various

computer-based simulation equipment

installed. Advanced training equipment is

essential for providing trainees with lifelike

simulations that allow trainees to work as

if they are on a real ship. However, aging

of the former projection systems led to

unsatisfactory performance in simulation

training. Competitive pricing, reliable

services and proven experience were the

reasons why the Marine Department

approached to Media-Go to solve the

problem.

Media-Go served as the main contractor

and systems integrator in this project,

having close cooperation with four other

partners: Barco supplied the Projection

Systems; AV Stump the Projection

Mapping and Auto Calibration System; LG

supplied high quality Displays and

Mindstec supplied the Datapath VSN

Series Video Wall Controllers. Media-Go

integrated the advantages of each product

to upgrade the obsolete projection and

video wall systems to a new level.

Media-Go replaced and upgraded the

projection systems of three Training

Bridges and an Instructor Room of the

Marine Department Training Centre. One

of the most sophisticated installations was

the high-end, 270-degree seamless edge

blending video wall that simulates the

situation on a modern ship's bridge. It was

a great challenge for the blending and

automatic calibration of the seven

projectors that were used. But with the

use of Datapath Video Wall Controllers

with user-friendly control interface, the

video wall was able to show 270-degree

seamless animations in high resolution

that facilitated simulation training.

Apart from providing the quality

projection systems, Media-Go team also

delivered effective and timely response in

tackling technical glitches during the 4-

month project period. The Marine

Department was contented with the

upgraded installations and the excellent

one-stop services of Media-Go.

"Media-Go was willing to work with us in

the spirit of partnership, and were

involved with us by having dialogues and

discussions with us for solving technical

problems. Media-Go was also open-

minded to share and streamline the

installation with us closely," said Mr.

Leung, Marine Ofcer of Marine

Department Training Centre.
