Holosonics’ sound technology a perfect fit for highlighting the creative genius of Leonardo da Vinci
The Max Planck Institute for the History of Science (MPIWG), with the Museo Galileo and the Staatsbibliothek zu Berlin, chose the innovative technology of the Audio Spotlight from Holosonics to highlight the world of Leonardo da Vinci in their exhibition “Leonardo’s Intellectual Cosmos.” As a great inventor of creative machines, it was only appropriate that the exhibition used revolutionary directional audio applications to immerse visitors in Leonardo’s life and work.
Holosonics’ Audio Spotlight AS-168i was featured in multiple areas throughout the exhibition that reconstructed Leonardo’s lost book collection. Visitors could have an immersive, personal experience with Leonardo’s books and reproductions of codices, artworks, and objects in a safe, touchless experience thanks to Holosonics’ patented technology that utilizes isolated audio while keeping the surrounding area quiet.
Museums and galleries worldwide have found Holosonics’ Audio Spotlight is the perfect solution for their venues and prefer this innovative technology over the now antiquated headphone-enabled audio. Holosonics debuted the Audio Spotlight as a touchless solution before the Covid pandemic, but just like Leonardo, it is now clear they were ahead of their time.
The exhibition “Leonardo’s Intellectual Cosmos” was open at the Staatsbibliothek ze Berlin, Dietrich Bonhoeffer-Saal, from May 11 to July 17, 2021. Learn more about the exhibition here
