Portal 31 Mining Exhibit, Harlan, KY. Below are a few highlights of technologies we've implemented. We were in charge of the original installation and have been maintaining and upgrading the exhibit since 2011 with a total revamp in 2023.

Stop 2: Media Repair

This display includes a DMX-controlled animatronic miner and a rear projection screen. The animatronic miner interacts with the miners displayed on the screen. The original media from 2011 has been upgraded to an AI-enhanced version, uncovering details that were not at all visible before.

Stop 3: Theatrical Projection

This theatrical projection is meant to simulate the mine workers in action. They are installing Brattice cloth which is used for manipulation and directing of mine ventilation, ensuring the safety of the miners. The projection is housed in a custom hard enclosure with HVAC for temperature control and protection from the precarious environment.

Stop 5: DMX Control

The exhibit for P31 includes a specially designed replica of a coal chute, demonstrating the journey coal takes during the mining process. It's built to last, controlled by DMX technology, waterproof, and requires virtually no maintenance, while seamlessly integrating with the entire show control.

Stop 8: Immersive Theater

Three projectors, mapped and blended to the coal walls, display scenes and historical images of the area. Two outdoor rated 75" 4K screens present a history of the mine, town, and their inhabitants. All projectors are protected from the damp mine environment by sealed HVAC controlled enclosures.
