OUR SERVICES

Planetariums are for people. Ours stand behind yours.

Design. Install. Support. Improve.

A digital planetarium is complex. From the outset there are electrical, acoustical, optical, equipment placement, and cabling pathway requirements to specify. Human factors too. And the product is complex: Millions of lines of code, high-bandwidth signal transmission, computers running in sync to millisecond precision. Your staff must be trained and supported through commissioning, early operations, and beyond.

After you open, we’ll continue to innovate. You’ll want new capabilities as we develop them, new science data to visualize, and the best new shows to present.

Everyone at Sky-Skan is part of your support team. Our trained field service engineers come to you (virtually or in person), and have unfettered access to the engineers, scientists, programmers, and technicians who designed your system. You’ll never be alone.
