In 2021, we completed the planning, design, and construction of Japan's first dome theater with an LED dome system (the world's first LED dome planetarium). The first DYNAVISION-LED unit was installed in the Konica Minolta Planetarium Manten NAGOYA, which is operated by our company, and the second unit was installed in Planetaria YOKOHAMA in 2022. In fiscal 2023, a total of 320,000 visitors per year enjoyed the beautiful, realistic images at the two theaters.

Our technology and know-how cultivated through construction of our own theaters, introduction of projection equipment, and video production using LEDs enables us to accommodate a variety of styles, such as horizontal, inclined, and vertical installation, as well as any size. We will help you realize your ideal dome theater.

02Acoustic Design with Lifelike Presence.

The DYNAVISION-LED system features numerous sound holes for acoustic transmission. The sound from the speakers installed directly behind the LED panels is transmitted to the audience through the sound holes, creating an immersive experience that invites them to feel as if they have entered the world of the artwork.

03Visual Solutions That Deliver Overwhelming Realism and Immersion.

DYNAVISION-LED is a video system that uses a self-luminous LED element, which is a differentiator in the market. Unlike the projection system using a projector, which is currently the mainstream, DYNAVISION-LED offers high brightness and a wide color gamut (155% of sRGB). This enables the reproduction of clear blue skies, ocean waters, vibrant red sunsets, and twinkling starry skies, which were previously challenging to express.

Comparison with
high-end projectors

Dome 1 of our large dome theater, PLANETARIA TOKYO, is one of the brightest projection-type domes in Japan. DYNAVISION-LED provides a visual and acoustic experience that is far superior to that of this facility. We would be delighted if you would visit the site and experience its beauty and acoustics for yourself.
