San Jose, CA | September 22, 2015

Prysm, Inc., a privately held designer and manufacturer of total display solutions that deliver immersive and engaging user experiences, today announced the installation of a Cascade 117 collaboration video wall solution at BAFTA 195 Piccadilly, the British Academy of Film and Television Arts (BAFTA) worldwide headquarters in London’s historic West End. BAFTA, an independent British charity that supports, develops and promotes the art forms of the moving image, employs the Cascade 117 as part of a state-of-the-art audio-visual experience that it offers to its guests. 

For corporate collaboration sessions and product launches, the award-winning Cascade 117 allows BAFTA and its clients to move from passive presentations to dynamic demonstrations. Cascade collaboration solutions enable users to present, share, reposition, resize and annotate all types of content through on-screen touch. Multiple, simultaneous live inputs can be displayed and interacted with on screen including video, telepresence, web apps, PCs and mobile devices.

“At its core, BAFTA identifies, rewards and celebrates excellence in the art forms of the moving image. The Cascade 117 provides an amazing platform for showcasing breakthrough work in film, television and games,” said Pauline Campbell, head of facilities for BAFTA. “The interactivity capabilities of the Cascade solution add a rich level of engagement to the many events hosted at our venue.”

“We are very excited to take the experience BAFTA provides at this marquee location to a new level of immersion and engagement with our Cascade collaboration solution,” said Glenn Wastyn, vice president of Europe for Prysm.  “Delivering breathtaking beauty and unmatched interactivity, Cascade solutions are the perfect match for the high standards of excellence for which BAFTA is renowned.”

With screen sizes from 190” to 65”, Cascade solutions bring groundbreaking collaboration capabilities to every meeting space from the boardroom to the two-person huddle room.
