A First-of-Its-Kind Canvas

Standing more than 550 feet tall and visible from nearly anywhere in the city, the Washington Monument left no room for error. LMG deployed 40 Barco UDX-4K40 projectors with primary and backup units on every side, driven by a Ross Vertex media server ecosystem across eight decentralized playout computers surrounding the monument.
