Planetariums and Science Centers
The Power to Travel Through Time and Space
Planetariums and science centers can provide their attendees with creative and memorable learning experiences. Realistic 3D images of the heavens make one feel as if they were actually gazing into the night.
Planetariums and science centers across the world use Evans & Sutherland's Digital Theater technology. At the Oregon Museum of Science and Industry, people of the Northwest can see stars in the skies over Portland as well as travel through the constellations. All this, thanks to our Digistar II™, the world's only 3D digital star projection system.
The power of E&S's Digital Theater technology is powerfully displayed through Cyber Explorer (produced by E&S), the opening show of the fantastic Boeing CyberDome Theater at Exploration Place, the newest attraction in Wichita, Kansas. Hailed as the world's most advanced digital theater, this 170-seat, 60-foot-diameter domed environment is powered by E&S's unique Digistar 3 interactive image-generation system. The tilted, domed screen presents an impressive 40- by-180-foot image, completely immersing the audience.
Among the fascinating scenes at the Boeing CyberDome is a flight through the Northern Lights, a fantastic journey through the center of the earth, and the most beautiful voyage through the splendors of our galaxy yet created in real time. Whether you're looking to take a trip through the universe, or are interested in a ' virtual internal tour' of the human body, E&S has a digital theater solution to meet your requirements.
