CTFest22 Gothenburg: inspired by Ghostframe and Holoplot

At Creative Technology we are always looking to position ourselves at the forefront of the technology market, with a constant thirst for new innovations and technology that keep bringing live events and systems integration to new levels. Close to the Christmas holidays CT Gothenburg has a tradition of inviting clients and partners to an annual gathering and this year we grabbed the opportunity to showcase two of the most exiting innovations on the technology market today.

Combining GhostFrame and HOLOPLOT we were able to demonstrate a simulated tri-language conference where attendees could watch a live presentation in their mother language alongside hearing a simultaneous language translation without the need for audio headsets.

Using GhostFrame, we were able to present one language version presentation to the main LED screen allowing the on-stage presenter to interact and make any reference points for the audience. At the same time, two additional screen windows were placed onto the LED, each having a frame remap of their relevant language presentation so the audience could still understand the presentation and view it live at the same time.

To take this already ground-breaking demonstration format to the next level, we introduced HOLOPLOT. One of the unique characteristics of HOLOPLOT is the ability to create multiple audio spotlights at the same time. This allowed us to focus and concentrate three defined listening areas that corresponded to the respective screens and languages being displayed – creating separate audience sections that could not only see, but also hear three different presentations, giving them translated audio of a live event in their own language without the need for worn devices.

Combining both GhostFrame and HOLOPLOT into a world we all know has opened a multitude of avenues for further collaboration and just one small area of where we are looking at new technologies and their use in real world delivery.

About Holoplot

One system install, countless possibilities. A simple, centralized HOLOPLOT X1 sound system lets you generate different coverage zones – without having to physically move the hardware – thanks to our revolutionary software design. Whether one targeted sound field that minimizes room reflections, multiple audio zones playing different content simultaneously, or focus spots adding individual experiences – X1’s 3D Audio-Beamforming and Wave Field Synthesis capabilities offer both problem solving and creative solutions for any type of venue.
