On May 1st, the worlds attention will be turned to the World Expo 2010 held in Shanghai China, and the centerpiece of the event will no doubt be the Taiwan Pavilions “Mountain, Water, & Lantern of the Heart” display. ASUS has done its utmost to support the Taiwan Pavilion, sponsoring its highly-regarded BA5190 business desktop PCs for use as the central means of controlling the Pavilions multi-layered multimedia performances.

The Taiwan Pavilions display entails extensive video projections and lighting. Having two different appearances in the day and at night, the focal point of the Pavilion is a massive LED ball representing “The Heart of Taiwan” which is constantly encircled by moving virtual images, including thousands of flying butterflies and a deep-sea experience. It is accompanied by a lantern screen which projects a wide array of spectacular views of Taiwan, showcasing the islands creativity, sustainability of nature and local arts. ASUS BA5190 desktop PCs will be used to electronically control these multimedia extravaganzas over the course of the event.
“ASUS is glad to be part of this spectacular world event. We are especially proud of the fact that ASUS products have been selected by the World Expo organizers to play a critical role in the Taiwan Pavilions multimedia showcase,” said ASUS CEO Jerry Shen. “ASUS PCs—renowned for their performance and reliability—were deemed perfect for controlling the non-stop video projections and lighting required within the Taiwan Pavilion. Through the use of ASUS PCs, we hope that visitors will be able to witness the beauty of Taiwan and experience Taiwans unique multicultural art and traditions to their full extent.”
