Digital Installation Flourishes at Chelsea Flower Show

May 23, 2012 - PRLog -- Working with De Montfort University’s Retail Lab the Leicester based company, Working Solutions, contributed their expertise to the project to create something truly organic at the world famous show.
The unique garden built by Second Nature Gardens in association with Derry’s Nurseries, was designed specifically for hospice staff, parents and children as an area that promoted relaxation and reflection.  
To enhance the overall experience and inject a modern dimension into the show an interactive installation was developed by Working Solutions in conjunction with other partners.  The digital installation combines audio stimulation, with visitor profile recognition to trigger a series of digital projections within the garden environment.
The software behind the installation was powered by Acquire Digital which is a product range developed by Working Solutions (Creative IT).  The Acquire software used a special Quividi plug-in which can detect and distinguish between age and gender.  
The Acquire software is then responsible for selecting the digital content based on the information provided and keeps the content projected for the length of time required, ignoring further triggers to create a nice even mix of projections.
The garden has already been recognised for its nod to current trends and has won the silver medal within the ‘Fresh’ category.
Neil Farr, Managing Director at Working Solutions, reported ‘it is an enormous privilege to be involved and to be able to contribute to such a prestigious event. We would like to congratulate the team on winning the silver medal.’
The garden will be recreated at the hospice in Loughborough after the show has finished.
