The SkyVision system offers the ability to run full dome pre-rendered feature presentations using high-definition hardware decoders and advanced playlisting features not found in any other system. Where DigitalSky represents the ideal real-time teaching tool, SkyVision provides the ideal fixed playback mechanism for public shows. With SkyVision, the theatre can access a library of shows produced by other planetariums and play them back with minimal technical staffing requirements.

The SkyVision system offers planetariums a reliable, cost effective and flexible alternative to large format film projection. With nearly five million pixels per frame, and a frame rate more than twice that of large format film, SkyVision images are completely free of flicker and motion artifacts and come alive on the dome in a way planetarium audiences have never before experienced. Playing through the same projectors employed by DigitalSky, SkyVision achieves the necessary contrast ratio to ensure that star field sequences are deep, rich and viewed against the true black of night.

Flexible Configuration

Where others try to force fit the customer into a one-size-fits-all solution, Sky-Skan will custom configure a system to meet your needs. Maybe you have an opto-mechanical instrument which interferes with the projection lines of a standard configuration - we have an answer. Or maybe you really need those extra seats and can't afford to have a projection pit in the middle of the theatre - we have an answer. Or maybe the simple maintenance and low operating costs are the most critical needs for you - we have an answer. Whatever your circumstances may be, SkyVision is a flexible platform which allows us to offer you the right answer. All of your planetarium's requirements will be addressed from lighting, to sound and auxiliary equipment.

Real Planetarium Shows That Fulfill Your Mission

Sky-Skan remains committed to offering the most diverse and relevant programming. We do not feed you a stream of content-light entertainment shows that resemble amusement park rides, we have entertaining and engaging programs with real substance. And we draw on our network of SkyVision theatres for content in the library so you can rest assured there will be a variety of styles from a mix of producers.

If you want, we'll even teach you and provide you with the tools to create your own content. The digital world may seem intimidating at first , but the creative tools at your disposal are amazing and much easier to learn than you might think. If you have a story to tell and a vision, we can help you bring it to life.
