Mersive Technologies is building the highest resolution, seamless display ever seen by the public. The display is composed of 80 digital light projectors blended into a seamless image containing 60 million pixels. These pixels will be packed into a display that is 27 feet across and 15 feet tall. The resulting 160,000 lumens of brightness will be seen for many city blocks in the heart of downtown Louisville, Kentucky as part of the 4-day International Idea Festival (www.ideafestival.com).
