Turtle Back Zoo, consistently ranked as the best zoo in New Jersey state, has rebuilt the main entrance to the public space, and worked with McCann Systems to give the front of the zoo a modern upgrade and encourage more patron interaction.
The two entryway screens are LED towers that are two separate systems-site demands, including the structure and trenching, required the separate, two-rack system. Each 15’ x 22’ tower features Absen XD6 waterproof LED modules at a 6.67mm pixel pitch secured to a custom display structure, stamped by a state licensed structural engineer. To show custom content that can be updated at the will of the zoo, each rack is outfitted with a NovaStar controller that feeds a BrightSign media player.
In addition to the design and building of the audiovisual devices, McCann was responsible for the final configuration and testing of all systems. McCann also coordinated the network integration slated to reside on Turtle Back Zoo’s network and provided training on the new entrance systems.
