Dataton’s ‘Watchout’ multi-display software recently provided projection mapping on four landmark buildings in Riga, Latvia, as part of an annual festival.

November’s Staro Riga 2014 Festival of Light attracted an estimated 500,000 visitors with light processions, art installations and architectural projections, while also celebrating the Latvian city as the joint European Capital of Culture 2014.

System integrator Solaris, based in Saint Petersburg and Moscow, Russia, supplied Watchout systems and hardware for projection mapping on the facades of the Astor Riga Hotel, Congress Centre, St Peter's Church and the Academy of Arts during the five-day festival.

“The long nights in the north are a perfect backdrop for this kind of large-scale outdoor projection and we're proud to see Watchout used in such a spectacular and entertaining fashion,” said Lars Sandlund, COO of Dataton.

Watchout has also been used in other recent outdoor projection mapping projects in Sweden, the US, Mexico and Turkey.
