AVW'S ULTIMATE FLYING SYSTEM CONTROL

HAVING received a significant number of enquiries from as far afield as Australia, AVW Controls saw the need to devise a way of demonstrating their products at a distance.
The product that has generated the most enquiries is AVW's Impressario, designed and built to provide sophisticated automation at an affordable cost, and AVW's managing director, Anton Woodward, realised that the company's own website offered the perfect medium to demonstrate the product globally. He created a demonstration version of the Impressario which can be accessed via the company's website, providing potential customers with the opportunity to evaluate the software whether they are in the UK or overseas.
The Impressario demo version allows potential clients the opportunity to use the software as if they were operating a flying system on location, using the editing facilities and simulating a show. It is also possible to download the accompanying instruction manual which outlines exactly what can be achieved and how simple Impressario is to use. Anton Woodward said: "Placing the demo version and manual on the Internet was the ideal solution as it enables new users to gain a hands-on insight into how to maximise the potential of the system".
The AVW Impressario motion control system itself is highly versatile and it was used to control the mathematics of where, how fast and when to accelerate the infamous log, suspended approximately 15.5 m in the air in the recent filming of Tomb Raider.
