The First-Ever PT-RQ50K Deployed in SE Asia Revitalizes a Space-Themed Hotel with Dynamic Projection Mapping

Grande Centre Point Space Pattaya is a themed hotel and entertainment complex in Pattaya, Thailand. As the country’s only space-themed hotel, operators wanted to revitalize its distinctive space-shuttle-shaped structure as a landmark attraction. “We needed a trendy and fascinating technology,” says Mesinee Kaewratri, Vice President of Marketing & Communication at LH Mall & Hotel Co., Ltd. “That’s why we brought in projection mapping. The projector that best portrayed our work was Panasonic’s PT-RQ50K. Panasonic sent a team of experts to create the spectacular together.”

With 50,000 lm¹ and Native 4K resolution, PT-RQ50K uses state-of-the-art technology to project vibrant images over the hotel’s façade, which includes a kinetic wall comprising 30,000 perforated metal pieces that move in the wind. A single PT-RQ50K—protected against the salty air with an anti-corrosion treatment—covers the entire projection surface and maintains high definition even on shiny metal pieces. “When we saw what the projector did, the color was visually stunning,” said Ms. Kaewratri. “It completes us as a space hotel and reflects the futuristic world.”
