Science City Space Theatre upgraded

The Science City Space Theatre recently underwent a major upgradation and switched from a 2D celluloid-based film projection system to a 3D digital projection system to be at par with the technological advancements around the world. Subhabrata Chaudhuri, Director of Science City said, "The upgraded facility will provide an immersive experience and the viewers will feel as if they are being transported into the scenes that are being viewed and the objects in projection will appear close enough to touch. Carl Zeiss AG, Germany was commissioned to renovate the Space Theatre". A power dome, an active 3D full dome high-resolution system has been installed inside the theatre which has state-of-the-art LED lighting, surround sound system and seating arrangements. The upgraded theatre was inaugurated by Dr. Mahesh Sharma, Union Minister of Culture, through teleconferencing. The total upgradation cost was RS 20 Crore which was fully funded by the Ministry of Culture. The space theatre of Science City was the first of its kind in India when it was built back in 1997.
