Ascend Studios was proud to be a sponsor of the yearly Loews Hotels golf tournament last week.
This tournament was organized to support and provide donations to the Feeding Children Everywhere Foundation. The morning started with screwdrivers, bloody marys and hanging out with our friends from Loews Hotels. Once we hit the course, it became clear that the Ascend Studios team was way outside of our “techie” comfort zone. It was very exciting for us when we successfully hit the ball off of the tee! Casey was very good at burying the ball into the ground. Zach was great at driving the ball down the green (and only hit a few houses). Josh was able to skillfully avoid hitting the golf ball off of the tee countless times. Our guest, from Cirque Du Soleil: La Nouba, Juan was our golfing savior. He was very skilled at hitting the ball in the correct direction; we were in awe of his sweet golfing skills.
Loews Hotels did an amazing job with the event and were able to raise a lot of money for the Feeding Children Everywhere Foundation! We are so proud to have Loews Hotels as a national partner and to be a part of such a fun / meaningful event.

Designing the Ultimate 360 EPIC LED Video Wall Room
Our friends at Burns & McDonnell, the world’s top engineering firm, tasked us with designing and building an EPIC, State-of-the-art 360 LED video wall room. Consequently, this state-of-the-art space allows them to preview all their 3D CAD files and engineering projects physically. As a result, it provides an immersive experience that significantly enhances collaboration with their teams and clients.
Enhancing Collaboration Beyond VR
Although many companies use VR for CAD file walkthroughs, VR often falls short regarding real-time discussion. Specifically, it lacks the capability for team members to see where others are focusing or pointing. Therefore, our 360 LED video wall bridges this gap by allowing everyone in the room to view and discuss the designs simultaneously, creating a more interactive and engaging experience. Our 360 LED video wall allows everyone to experience their out-of-this-world design but also shows the client why Burns & McDonnell is simply the best engineering firm in the world. They are always pushing the edge of technology to set the standard within their industry.
Proud Partnership with Burns & McDonnell
We are genuinely thrilled to be Burns & McDonnell’s official LED video wall partner. Notably, witnessing their innovative launch pad designs and experiencing the sensation of being 40 stories high up is truly extraordinary. This project not only highlights their groundbreaking designs but also underscores why Burns & McDonnell remains a leader in engineering excellence.
Collaboration with Igloo Vision
In this groundbreaking project, we partnered with Igloo Vision, whose software suite expertly manages the 3D CAD integrations. Meanwhile, Ascend took charge of all other aspects, including software and media management, hardware design, installation, and implementation. Consequently, this collaboration ensured a seamless integration of cutting-edge technologies.
A Global First – 360 LED video Wall Room
We are proud to announce that this is the world’s first 360 LED video wall room. Furthermore, it is a pioneering achievement, with only one other similar room located in Dubai. Thus, the immersive experience provided by this room is truly mind-blowing and sets a new benchmark in the industry.
Easy Streaming and Control
The system allows the Burns & McDonnell team to stream their designs effortlessly from networked computers or through local wireless connections. Additionally, our design includes high-quality K-Array speakers, full-color programmable recessed lighting, and a sophisticated control system. Consequently, team members can easily manage everything using a wall-mounted touch panel or Surface tablet, making the system both intuitive and user-friendly.
A Team Effort
This project was indeed a significant team effort involving the entire Ascend team. We are extremely proud of the final product and deeply grateful for the opportunity to collaborate with such an innovative and industry-leading client.
Watch the Installation Film
Finally, don’t miss the film showcasing the installation process. It beautifully captures the transformation and highlights the incredible features of the world’s first 360 LED video wall room!
