Digital Projection scores an ippon at African Judo Championship

Digital Projection’s TITAN laser projectors brought the projection mapping power for the opening ceremony of the African Judo Championship in Cairo. The opening show of the 45th edition of the championships was held in Cairo Stadium indoor halls complex from 25th to 28th April, where top African judokas battled for places in the Paris Olympics, created a festive atmosphere with dance performances and projection mapping show.

The opening ceremony, projected onto the middle of the stadium’s hall floor, consisted of a play of colours, shapes and African flags, with a lighting performance accompanying the projection show in order to enhance the ambiance of the event.

HiLights Group achieved a stunning visual experience to the audience by utilising eight Digital Projection’s TITAN 37000-WU projectors to cover an area of 40m by 20m. The content, which was also created by HiLights Group, was processed by a Dataton WATCHOUT media server. Each projector was equipped with a 2.56-4.16:1 lens allowing the projectors to be placed discreetly away from the audience and the images to travel along a 45m path to the stadium complex floor.

Yara Mahran, senior digital marketing specialist at HiLights Group, explains: “We mounted four projectors on the front truss, while the remaining four were positioned on the rear truss to ensure optimal coverage and uniformity across the venue.” She adds that the superior brightness, clarity and reliability of Digital Projection projectors allowed them to deliver “stunning visuals that captivated attendees and brought the event to life.”

“Each projector was adjusted to achieve optimal throw distances, ensuring comprehensive coverage of the pitch area, while maintaining image clarity and uniformity,” explains Mahran. “Our calculations were based on the stadium’s dimensions and the TITAN projectors’ specifications, guaranteeing precise alignment for maximum visual impact.” According to Mahran, this was instrumental in delivering vivid and bright projections throughout the event.

The projectors brightness, resolution and reliability were “paramount for the success of the show”, says Mahran, ensuring “clear and vibrant visuals, even in a large well-lit stadium environment.” The TITAN 37000-WU, renowned for its exceptional brightness and reliability, is a powerful 3-chip laser projector delivering up to 37,000 lumens from a relatively compact chassis.

Mahran praises the support offered by Digital Projection for the show, stating: “Digital Projection has been an invaluable partner in our success. Not only did they provide us the projectors, but also offered our technical team training at HiLights Group HQ, enabling our team to utilise the laser projectors to their full potential to deliver exceptional results in each of our projects.”

The opening ceremony left a lasting impression on attendees, with the feedback being “overwhelmingly positive”, says Mahran. “It was a successful AV setup and we were thrilled to see the smiles on the spectators faces. We take pride in delivering projects with an unparalleled quality and seeing the successful end result makes it worth it.”
