The Proposal App

After three amazing years of five star reviews & winning “Best Sales App of 2013” from the Tabby Awards, we successfully sold The Proposal to Matrix Information Systems. We had a great time taking an idea and bring it to life for small businesses everywhere. We still feel thrilled on how well our little idea took off on the Apple App Store. We have switched gears from full time application creators to focus on our interactive audio video systems. We know Matrix Information Systems will do a great job supporting our beloved users.

Details

We have had success stories ranging from landscaping companies to car dealerships, but one thing each company has in common is their need to make the most of every minute on the job. We understand that need and that is why we are proud to provide companies with a powerful app that is simple to use. The Proposal is designed for you and your on-the-go company.

The Proposal is an intuitive, attractive graphical user interface that includes the tools sales professionals require to generate sales estimates and proposals onsite and on demand. It takes responsiveness to a new level while ensuring that typos and mathematical errors, that can cost a business their margins, are a thing of the past.

Featured Project

Burns & McDonnell, EPIC LED Video Wall

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!
