PROJECTION DOME VENUES

Dome Projection Systems

The Lumen and Forge dome projection system is a network of components that transform the dome into an immersive experience. Every system is custom designed to suit the size and use case of the venue.

We bring all of this together to create a seamless, pixel-perfect, 2K to 8K resolution spherical screen. We leverage the power of AI and use a patented auto-alignment system to blend and color match the projectors faster and at a higher fidelity that was previously impossible when projection mapping by hand. The main server can control every element and can be easily controlled with a single touch on a tablet.

Dome Fabrication

Custom dome fabrication ensures that your vision is authentically yours. We pride ourselves on our ability to fabricate custom domes to meet the unique needs of our clients. Our in-house metal fabricators and welders have the skills and experience to create sturdy steel frame domes or geodesic domes made from any other material.

In addition to fabricating custom geodesic fabricated domes, our team can also create custom inflatable domes, like we did for the world’s largest projection dome in Miami and Atlanta, which we had custom built in an oblong shape. Our team is highly skilled in custom dome fabrication and we can create any size or shape dome you need.

Hardware and Infrastructure

There are many additional elements beyond the structure and the dome projection technology that go into producing an event with an immersive dome venue. These critical elements include anchoring and ballasting, decking, flooring, heating, cooling, power generation, installation and more. We offer turn-key solutions to make sure your event and venue has everything it needs to be successful from top to bottom. With such a broad range of options and needs, L&F can assist and plan the foundation of your immersive event and ensure a flawless deployment.

4D FX

4D FX are the perfect way to take any event to the next level. By adding audio, scent, or motion effects, you can create an unforgettable experience for your guests. 4D FX are perfect for domes, as they help to further enhance the experience. We work hard to design every element of an event to fully immerse guests in the experience. 4D FX are just one way we can create a truly unique and memorable event

We had the pleasure of creating a 4D FX immersive dome for Jeep during the 2018 and 2019 Winter X-Games. The projection dome included a custom-made rig, our patented auto-alignment system, 4K UHD spherical screen, and studio-grade Adam Audio AX3 sound system that played an immersive soundtrack, ensuring that every splat of mud and crunch of snow was heard over the roar of the engine. Two scent boxes were added with four FX fans, blowing our guests with wind FX and fresh scents of pine and cedar as the top of the Jeep came down.

Dome Rendering and Design

We start from the ground up, working directly with your creatives to build out the immersive dome, whether using one of our standard domes or require custom fabrication. A to scale model or technical diagram ensures the perfect execution of your vision, ideal for planning, permitting and fabricating purposes.

Our team of visual design and rendering experts are available to take your concept and project and work side-by-side to create a to-scale 3D model. Once modeled, we can composite them into real world photos and Google Earth scans for an even more realistic visualization.

Show Running

Not only do we supply the tech and equipment for an event, but we can handle everything involved in putting on a great show. We have a team of highly talented audio-visual technicians who are experts at making any event spectacular. In addition to providing top-notch equipment and technical support, they are also skilled at handling logistics and keeping everything running smoothly. And of course, we also have a team of skilled VJs who are adept at creating visually stunning displays that will keep your guests entertained throughout the entire event.
