Technology @ The O2 (Millennium Dome)
Technological innovations at the transformed Millennium Dome. £350m
($700m) has been spent refitting The O2
New technology includes sound dampening which has reduced echo in the concert
hall to match the world's highest standards .
Staff at The O2 have RFID chip security passes linked to a computer network
that monitors where they go throughout the Millennium Dome.
The vue cinema features what technology suppliers NEC say is the world's
brightest commercial movie projector bulb, the NEC 2500.
The films are stored and played from a computer server, ensuring the quality
stays the same throughout a movie's run, unlike with celluloid.
