Shenzhen Shirui supplies tailor-made outdoor projector temperature-controlled enclosures for the landmark 3D Mapping installation at Kutaisi Technology Hub, Georgia. Our climate-resistant housings deliver 24/7 stable projection performance amid the Caucasus’ harsh lakefront weather.
Project Overview
Shenzhen Shirui Display Equipment Co., Ltd. delivered a complete suite of custom outdoor projector temperature-controlled enclosures for the iconic 3D Mapping project at Georgia’s Kutaisi Technology Hub. Our specialized housings act as a reliable hardware backbone, sustaining flawless operation of the full architectural light and shadow system under the Caucasus region’s unforgiving lakefront climate.
Kutaisi, Georgia’s ancient historic capital, boasts a brand-new city landmark: the Kutaisi Technology Hub. Repurposed from the former Georgian Parliament building, the site features a sweeping curved glass dome wrapped in a full-scale permanent 3D architectural projection system, paired with four 29-meter-tall artistic projection light towers. This installation marks Georgia’s first interactive building facade light show, and ranks as the largest permanent 3D Mapping project across the entire Caucasus.
Full Project Cooperation Partners
- Creative light & interactive content design: Ukraine-based Expolight creative studio
- Projection hardware provider: Epson Europe
- Local project coordination & operation: GITA Tech Park & Kutaisi Technology Hub
- Core outdoor protection solution supplier: Shenzhen Shirui Display Equipment
As the critical supporting hardware partner, Shirui engineered fully customized temperature-controlled projector enclosures exclusively for this project, forming the foundational safeguard for year-round stable running of the grand light show.
Core Project Pain Points: Harsh Lakeside Outdoor Environment Demands Top-Tier Equipment Protection
The biggest engineering hurdle lay in the severe natural conditions and special tower installation layout:
1. The site sits beside a lake with persistently high humidity, dramatic seasonal temperature swings, winter frost and lens condensation, plus summer extreme heat, wind-blown sand and rain erosion.
2. All projectors are mounted inside narrow compartments of four 29m sculptural light towers. High-altitude placement makes routine maintenance extremely inconvenient.
3. Standard basic waterproof casings fail to support 7×24/365 continuous operation. Any projector breakdown triggered by overheating, dampness, dust or water leakage would instantly halt the full dome 3D Mapping performance.
Shirui’s all-in-one temperature-controlled three-proof enclosures became the only viable solution to resolve these challenges.
Shirui Custom Temperature-Controlled Enclosures: Targeted Design to Solve All Outdoor Projection Headaches
With years of professional R&D and manufacturing experience in outdoor projector protective housings, Shirui customized solutions tailored to three unique onsite conditions: constant lakeside moisture, sealed high-tower installation, and non-stop long-duration operation. Every enclosure passes rigorous IP65/IP66 waterproof & dustproof, EMC electromagnetic compatibility and RoHS environmental compliance testing, fully meeting strict quality standards for large overseas cultural tourism light and shadow projects.
Intelligent Auto Thermo-Hygrostat System for Extreme Temperature Swings
Our enclosures integrate an automatic linked temperature & humidity control system to stabilize the internal working microclimate all year round:
- High-temperature cooling trigger: Built-in air cooling fans activate automatically once internal heat exceeds the safe threshold, eliminating projector overheating and color distortion during hot summers.
- Low-temperature anti-condensation heating module: Activates automatically when temperatures drop below 5°C or ambient humidity rises over 85%, preventing circuit short-circuits and lens frost in frigid winters.
- Built-in lens defog airflow channel: Continuous directional airflow sweeps the projection viewing window to stop fogging during live light shows, ensuring crisp, seamless 3D Mapping imaging across the entire curved dome surface.
No matter how violently outdoor weather fluctuates, projectors inside Shirui enclosures maintain an optimal working environment.
IP65 Sealed Construction Anti-Corrosion for Lakeside Exposure
To counteract tower-mounted sealed installation and corrosive lake mist, we adopted thick galvanized plate as the main cabinet material:
- Full IP65 sealed structure blocks rainwater, lake vapor and fine sand from penetrating the internal equipment compartment.
- Anti-rust electrostatic spray coating resists long-term salt & moisture corrosion from the lake, avoiding rust, deformation or structural aging after years of outdoor exposure.
- 95% light transmittance ultra-clear optical glass for projection windows minimizes brightness loss, delivering consistent sharpness and accurate color reproduction over long projection distances.
The four artistic towers adopt a layered dual-projector layout. Based on our flexible non-standard customization capacity, we supplied two enclosure variants to fit different tower compartment spaces:
- Internal Circulation Air-Conditioned Enclosure
Fully sealed external air isolation design with F6 medium-efficiency dust filters to block lake sand and insects. Perfect for narrow, confined upper tower levels with limited ventilation space.
- Hybrid Air-Cooling & Air-Conditioned Enclosure
Combines fresh air circulation with powerful constant temperature control, equipped with multi-purpose reserved sockets for multi-device wiring integration, ideal for spacious lower tower equipment zones.
All housings feature a multi-door modular disassembly design. Technicians can quickly install, inspect or replace projectors even within the cramped 29-meter-high tower cabins, drastically cutting overseas after-sales maintenance time and labor costs.
Cross-Border Collaboration: Made-in-China Hardware Powers Borderless Light Art
Expolight’s creative team shared a touching insight: “Light knows no borders.”
This landmark collaboration unites creative design from Ukraine, projection hardware from Europe, local operation teams in Georgia, and reliable protective technology manufactured in China.
The stunning curved-dome 3D Mapping visuals capture the public’s attention as a spectacular urban art piece, yet the unsung heroes behind every flawless light show are Shirui’s temperature-controlled enclosures, quietly operating reliably inside the towering sculptural structures day and night.
Conventional overseas outdoor projection projects frequently face costly downtime and frequent repair expenses caused by inferior protective casings. By equipping the Kutaisi hub with Shirui’s fully customized three-proof temperature-controlled housings, the project team eliminated risks of heat, damp and dust-induced equipment damage from the design phase. The solution extends projector service lifespans and slashes the full-lifecycle operational costs of the entire light installation, establishing a replicable hardware protection template for permanent large-scale projection projects on irregular architectural facades worldwide.
Closing Thoughts: Stable Protection for Every Ray of Light
From domestic nightscape tourism and commercial outdoor advertising to this world-class national landmark 3D projection project in Georgia, Shenzhen Shirui leverages self-developed intelligent temperature control protective technology to build unbreakable safety barriers for outdoor projection equipment across the globe. Every breathtaking light and shadow spectacle stands on our relentless pursuit of stability and reliability.
Moving forward, Shenzhen Shirui will keep advancing custom manufacturing capacity and upgrading core temperature control technology. We will deliver smarter, more robust Made-in-China protective housings to win trust from more landmark urban light and shadow projects worldwide.
We firmly believe: stable, reliable equipment protection is itself an indispensable part of stunning light art.
