An 8×3 metre touch wall with 80 Christie Microtiles supported the presentation to the ILO Board of Directors of the 8 main projects and related budget of the International Training and Improvement Center of ILO, the International Labor Organization (UN body).

The touch wall touch initially supported the presentation by the project managers and then ensured going into greater detail thanks to the consultation by the participants of the event.

Supplying the wall and the interactive app, created in just 15 days with the support of the ITCILO team, was a major challenge.

Objective: to make specialist interviews available in the lobby of a hotel where a Pharma Congress was being held in Rome.
Four touch wall with Christie Microtiles (rear projection video device) with laserscan allowed the participants at the conference to listen to snippets from various interviews on a dedicated portion of the screen. In collaboration with McCann Healthcare.

Application development and technology to enhance a “super-technological” Indesit oven. Objective: to involve the customer by generating an engagement activity – sending some entertaing photos, after having received a cake “cooked” virtually in the oven.

First in 2016 at Milan, then 2017 in Cardiff, Excogitare has provided multimedia skills and technologies for the two events.

In Milan, the 600 square meter area of PepsiCo, the sponsor of this major trophy, was equipped with 2 large LED walls, a video camera system for show cooking, a lighting system, loudspeaker system, and an audio system with DJ consoles. Excogitare and Bluefactoryevents also collaborated to produce an interactive application for Gatorade, where guests could take selfies in a “Champions” environment and personalize their Gatorade bottle.  The “Champions” photos then powered intense activity on the web.

In Cardiff, besides the hospitality area of the Village, equally sparkling, rich in design and technology, Excogitare also organised audio-video and lighting installations for an internal PepsiCo event with around 250 guests. This included a show of about an hour where every brand of the group involved in the UEFA sponsorship showcased their activities in diverse ways: videos, presentations, talk shows, parkour performances and soccer ball tricks…  concluding with the live singing of the UEFA anthem, the presentation of the trophy and the participation from their hotel in Cardiff of the fantastic Black Eyed Peas, the group chosen this year for the opening ceremony.

Insert a “magic” token, turn the handle on the stove and take a mini-apple pie! We will capture your expression and your amazement with a photo or a gif sent by mail and which can be shared on social media. This is the application developed for and with MRM-McCann for the Indesit brand to create a truly special “vending machine”.

For Hermès we developed the app in various editions for a photo booth which takes centre-stage in a series of in-store events organized by the brand in Italy. Customers immortalized their own outfit with a snap, after choosing the brand’s accessories, with a flood of single and group photos.

A video wall solution composed of 24 MicroTiles™ with Christie multitouch iKit added zing to an interactive application created by Excogitare. The whole ensemble helped to enhance the collections of fine jewellery from the French fashion house.

We used 45 square metres of AOTO 3.5 mm LEDs, for 3 large screens and multiple touch monitors. We also created several of the interactive applications on the stand.
Among these, the “PASI Projector” is of particular interest. This is an interactive system to display psoriasis marks on the hand and forearm, thereby attempting to raise awareness among doctors participating in the conference of this often neglected disease.
The interaction was facilitated by means of a special monitor with object recognition and a projector with high luminosity.
The solution was designed and developed by Excogitare.

For a Bexsero stand during a medical conference which took place at the MiCo convention centre in Milan, one of the most important Pharma communication agencies, McCann Complete Medical, experienced MicroTiles™ with an interactive video wall and an impressive installation in the shape of a key

We provided some hi-tech “goodies” on the 145 square meter stand of a multinational pharma company at an international rheumatology congress in Rome. A high-performance interactive table was used to display publications and clinical studies with interactive routes generated by recognising objects. Excogitare  also developed an interactive app which an operator used to show exclusive materials to doctors. The tabled also featured a seamless 55″ monitor, the only one of its kind in the world, which allows an “unlimited” number of simultaneous touch points. The monitor also recognises objects via their shape and size as well as by markers. Since the monitor is seamless it is possible to connect more monitors to create interactive journeys.
Excogitare also created an interactive installation with 3 LED arches 2.6 metres in height. One of the arches was lined internally with a curved LED screen. (We also developed an app.) An emotional journey with video content was activated by a sensor that can detect visitors’ position. An engaging audio experience was employed directional speakers with ultrasound. The last arch offered insights to raise physicians’ awareness of rheumatoid arthritis through the use monitors.
The stand also hosted an animated sculpture (produced by Gruppo Interfiere) representing the operation of the molecule that causes the disease.

Novartis required a stand to communicate the characteristics of a specific product.A game created for a major pharmaceutical company featuring an iPad and MicroTiles™ proved very popular with the 1100 players who took part in killing approximately 10,000 bacteria by hurling foam balls at a wall composed of 35 MicroTiles™. The game united individual players or pairs in a virtual battle against the bacterium “Pseudomonas aeruginosa”, the major cause of serious damage from cystic fibrosis, with the drug for the treatment of the disease. In addition to killing the bacteria, the game also included several striking, symbolic features, which enhanced the action of the players. The features of the game included:on-stand registration via iPad; issuing the “weapons”, the foam balls; players’ names and scores on the MicroTiles™ wall; and a match lasting 30 seconds with a free prize for the winner. The game produced great customer satisfaction and attracted a high number of participants and the client has decided to replicate the game at a future event.All the technology and digital content created for the stand, was realized by us.

Banca IntesaSanpaolo decided to try out Christie MicroTiles™ and commissioned from us a touchscreen video wall with I-kit (the multitouch application for Christie MicroTiles™).The video wall, made up of 24 MicroTiles, has been included in a booth in the exhibition area of ??the Rimini Meeting in late August.We also produced an interactive application to manage digital content, which allowed participants to experience IntesaSanpaolo’s “possible  world” through the words of ordinary folk and businesspeople.
The installation highlighted the bank’s role in the forthcoming Expo and some of Intesa’s cultural activities as well.

We provide integrated solutions for communications and technology: multimedia productions, audiovisual rental and special applications. Our strengths are our creativity, reliability and expertise. We support Novartis in internal meetings, conferences, stands, congresses and symposia with commitment and passion both in Europe and worldwide.

In June 2014 Novartis asked us to create a stand for the International Congress of Allergology EAACI Copenhagen to coordinate local suppliers of audio and video technology for symposiums with 400 doctors. We designed and created a 100m² stand, with a “simple” interactive where two handsets – operated with an Arduino interface card – enabled different content to appear on two 46″monitors. An area with a large screen size of 3.6 meters x 2.7 meters, composed of 81 Christie MicroTiles™, completed the visual concept of the stand.

We managed the technological equipment for two adjoining stands of 100 square meters each and provided technical support for audio and video with 186 MicroTiles™ and 30 LCD seamless monitors in various solutions with a touch screen videowall and we produced digital content. One particularly interesting feature was the realization of a multi touch table with object recognition. By moving a solid spherical shape or a cube, delegates could access different content via the application. We developed dedicated software and content using an infrared touch screen device. We coordinated the technical direction for a symposium with 700 participants and a private streaming link to room in anexternal location with another 200 spectators. We optimized the content of the slides in line with the graphics of the event and made short animations and walk-in installations. We also created a web application that after the event allowed a slideshow to be viewed online, synchronized with speech and video contributions.
Finally, we developed a portal from which all the local offices of Novartis worldwide could download the applications used on the stands with instructions and source files so that they could be customized, translated and re-used in local markets.

We created a stand of 60 square meters: it was small but packed full of activities. We also co-ordinated local suppliers of audio and video technology for several symposia. For the stand we have created a “virtual tree” – a multimedia installation formed from 10 iPads which 110 users interacted with. We even set up an augmented reality corner. The iPad application was designed to visualize the results of a satisfaction questionnaire in real time. After answering a questionnaire the user could check how their feedback related to that of the nine other participants. The interaction was handled by a local server which controlled the iPads via wi-fi. Meanwhile, augmented reality was used with two iMacs and two printed books displaying scientific content. The pages of the books were fitted with electronic tags. Two web cams were installed into a pair of table lamps that shone on the books. The user could browse the book and when the web cam read a tag, its content appeared on the computer monitors as a 3D animation. The stand also featured two 55″ monitors, where related content could be accessed and controlled using an iPad. The backdrop of the stand was dedicated to medical topics with monitors displaying videos and questionnaires.

ALTANA Pharma was Excogitare’s first client in the pharmaceutical sector in 2001 when it was still called BykGulden, until 2008 when the company was acquired by a Danish pharmaceutical firm. Working for ALTANA Pharma has been very useful in terms of the experience it offered us as a launch pad for the international market. In those years, we realized that we could compete with other agencies at the international level by offering expertise and flexibility. We have been involved with numerous stands, interactive installations, symposia, internal meetings and special events with ALTANAPharma.

Novartis needed a particularly innovativestand.
For the first time in Europe we used i-kit, the multitouchapplication realized by Christie MicroTiles™ (a new rear projection video display) to present scientific data, with a configuration of 3×6 MicroTiles™ giving a total resolution of 1080 x 3240 pixels. In addition to this display the stand featured an interactive LCD tabletop a 55″ LED screen which allowed participants to interact in real time with dedicated content and engage with the product campaign through an entertaining puzzle.

Novartis required an especially information-rich stand. We created a videowall using 58 Christie MicroTiles™ (a new type of video display using rear projection) combined An eye-catching irregular composition, and supported by a media player with 4x Full HD resolution, making it possible to display rich content with high quality video. The specially designed graphics and the highly innovative Christie MicroTiles™ engaged participants and persuaded them to stay longer on the stand

Novartis needed to create a stand in order to presentvarious technological innovations and thereby position itself as a reference point for physicians in the field of dermatology. Thanks to the historic collaboration with our partners, we designed and built a stand of 170 square meters with 58 Christie MicroTiles™, augmented reality, touchscreen monitors and several specific applications which also featured the new proximity marketing  technologies (NFC) and gestural interactivity (Leapmotion). The event required an enormous effort to co-ordinate with the various parties involved, including two international communication agencies. In addition to taking care of the installation of the technologies, we realized all the multimedia applications and, after the Congress, we created a portal from which all the local offices of Novartis throughout  the world could download applications with instructions and source files for customizing , translate and re-use in local markets.

Novartis needed to create an innovative wall for a stand at the EAACI Milan. We designed and built a configuration with 24 MicroTiles™ formed into a videowall and decorated with small PVC tiles lit by LEDs. An application with two touch monitor 55″ has completed the stand.

We offer a Wi-Fi coverage service within a stadium or arena for a huge audience. How many times has it happened while watching a concert or a sporting event that attendees have not been able to share the emotion of the moment with friends because their smartphone reads “Cannot connect to the internet. Try again …”? We can guarantee Wi-Fi coverage to an audience of between 5,000 and 60,000 people. The system provides simultaneous access to 75% of those present, making network, web applications and active contentavailable.

The stand of the IntesaSanpaolo banking group at the Salone del Gusto in Turin, hosted a totem realized by Excogitare.
We produced the contentof the call to action, targeting users, who could also browse the “Created in Italy” portal that IntesaSanpaolo has produced to promote the tourism business of its partners for Expo.
