Laser projections in honour of Nelson Mandela

In recognition of the recent passing of former President Nelson Mandela, LaserX for their client, the Western Cape Government, paid tribute to the great man by displaying his face and messages using laser, onto arguably one of the most famous projection surfaces in the world, Table Mountain in Cape Town / South Africa.

The images displayed on the mountain were projected from approximately 1 Km away with the image size being around 300m x 200m. The images used showed Mr. Mandela in the various stages of his life and were visible every evening until midnight from the 8th to the 16th of December.
The Gear: Laserworld's partner LaserX used 2 x RTI Nano Rainbow 36 with a typical output power of 38,000mW each. The laser lights were controlled by Pangolin Beyond.
