When Flogistix, an oil and gas technology leader, wanted to make their conference room more engaging they went big, turning to a company that is well known for the largest sports scoreboards in the world. Daktronics, in partnership with ImageNet Consulting and Rand Elliott Architects, manufactured and installed a new LED video wall for the company’s corporate space in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, to create an immersive conference room experience.
Rand Elliott Architects and ImageNet Consulting worked together to determine the purpose and story behind the space and research the technology. Daktronics IMD (Integrated Matrix Device) LED technology was chosen to help bring this collaborative room to life in conjunction with cameras, speakers, and microphones.
The LED video wall measures nearly 6 feet high by 36 feet wide and features a narrow pixel spacing of 1.5 millimeters for ultra-close viewing distances. It is capable of showing multiple video feeds for live or recorded video as well as programmed content, advertising messages, real-time presentations, and other graphics and animations.
The display features Integrated Matrix Device (IMD) LED technology consisting of red, green, and blue pixels mounted in a 2×2 array to achieve extremely close pixel spacing. It was installed using Daktronics Speed Frame wall mounting system to improve the installation process on site. This allowed for a quicker, easier installation for ImageNet and Daktronics while also getting the display up and running in a timely manner for Flogistix.
Secretly framing the video wall display, Sonance Invisible Series Speakers are buried in the front wall and ceiling drywall to form a 7.1 immersive audio experience. A fully automated Q-SYS audio/video/control/video conferencing experience drives the function of the space. For video calls, two Sennheiser TCC2 room mics and eight QSYS PTZ cameras extend down on lifts from the ceiling to allow the general collaborative use cases to maintain the clean lines designed and implemented by Rand Elliott.
“This corporate conference space is unlike most others we’ve encountered,” added Jim Vasgaard, Daktronics national sales manager for the AV sales channel. “Flogistix is really setting the standard with hidden speakers and hidden cameras to create a clean visual space. It really is a fantastic use of technology and space to make an incredible experience.”
“This room has everything a technology-focused company like Flogistix can use for any meeting or presentation scenario,” said ImageNet AV Director Kyle Kempf. “With all of these cutting-edge pieces of technology merged into a flexible Q-SYS system, we also appreciate that the Flogistix team inherently understands software application development and benchmarking. We are constantly learning and adapting the functionality of the space as use cases change the more they use the room.”
