There were some really neat systems shown at AAM this year - a vertical
sound projection where the sound projection was directly down - if you
were outside the quite narrow projection zone (maybe 2 1/2' - 3'?) you
didn't hear anything - this would certainly help if you wanted to put
multiple vocals in one larger exhibit area. you'd need to plan a way to
conceal the proj. unit - sort of an upside down snow coaster in acrylic
- but it might work really well.
