Oct 17, 2003 12:00 PM
AZCAR Technologies has been selected to build systems for Silicon
Valley based, Argo Entertainment Group (Argo).
The agreement between Argo and AZCAR provides for AZCAR to
prefabricate the systems in its assembly shop, and then install the
systems and commission them when construction of each venue is
completed.
Argo’s first “Metropolis Shopping and
Entertainment” retail store is now open in the Westfield
Shoppingtown Oakridge Mall in San Jose, CA.
The Metropolis will use state-of-the-art technology, using five
separate screens of various sizes. The largest will be a 21-foot
theatre quality HD screen as the central focus of the store. Internet
terminals where products can be purchased or reserved, information
requested, and feedback obtained will anchor each of the 50 seats in
Metropolis.
