Imagic Weave is a fusion of stainless steel mesh and state of the art LED technology. The woven wire mesh embellishes buildings with an outstanding shiny second skin and excellently serves as an effective sunscreen, filtering sun rays while maintaining its transparency.
Traxon’s first Imagic Weave facade in Germany is fully outdoor rated (IP67) with a length of 9m and a height of 4.7m, and installed on the exterior façade of Haver & Boecker’s headquarters building, displaying various kinds of media content in medium resolution, including videos, graphics, and animations.
The back of Haver & Boecker’s stainless steel wire mesh are fitted with 222 Imagic Weave tubes, each 3m long, ensuring easy maintenance as well as a flat surface of the facade. Around 10,656 high performance LEDs, with a pixel pitch of 6.25cm, display lighting effects in up to 16 million different colors. The mesh can be extended at any time, due to the used innovative patented clipping system and is therefore adaptable to different budgets. All the cables for the 42.3 square meter installation runs through the metal form, which minimizes the number of holes in the building’s facade between control room and media facade.
Featuring DMX and DVI capability, Imagic Weave is controlled by Traxon’s in-house control brand, e:cue, using its latest video micro converter, video control server, and the EMotion (DVI) software. Traxon’s first Imagic Weave project in Germany was finalized in August 2009.
