Orlando International Airport (MCO) recently unveiled the new state-of-the-art South Terminal Complex, featuring the TheMoment Vault, an immersive multimedia installation aimed at engaging travelers and providing a positive impression of the airport and local community.
TheMoment Vault is designed and managed by Smart Monkeys and utilizes media servers, proprietary AI-powered motion capture system and cameras from Montreal-based Realmotion to provide an immersive visual experience to passengers walking through the display.
The exterior of the Moment Vault is also adorned with 4mm DVLED displays, ensuring that every visitor in Terminal C can be part of the experience, even if they don’t walk through the middle of the installation.
“The Moment Vault reflects Orlando International Airport’s established air, water and sky aesthetic and provides an exciting new opportunity for visitors to create lasting travel memories and form positive associations with the airport and the city of Orlando,” said Alexandre Simionescu, Realmotion founder and project lead. “This project is a crowd pleaser, and that is its intent.”
The Moment Vault is the first part of Terminal C’s Experiential Media Environment, which will grow to include two additional high-tech installations. “Windows On Orlando” comprises three adjacent panoramic screens that form a 100-foot-long, 32-foot-tall display, while “The Portal” presents a three-story steel sculpture in the shape of a helix featuring thirty-two custom curved screens.
All three digital display experiences display content relevant to the locale, including space launches, underwater adventures, and the story of Florida’s transformation from springs and ranchlands to the dawn of theme parks and spaceports.
