Korea Ocean Business Corporation Builds Giant Media Wall Content at the Swedish National Maritime Museum

[Financial News] A giant new media wall has been installed at the Swedish National Maritime Museum, and a range of video content for family visitors will be on display, from the history of sea routes to marine ecosystems.
Korea Ocean Business Corporation (KOBC) said on the 31st that it recently completed the installation of an 18-meter giant media wall and an immersive exhibition space at the Swedish National Maritime Museum.

This project is the second collaboration between the two organizations, following the success of the media art exhibition "Sailing Through Time," which they unveiled in 2023. KOBC took part from the planning stage and produced content tailored to children, presenting the history, industry, and future value of the ocean in a way that is easier to understand.
The newly installed media wall on the museum's first floor is a giant high-resolution LED screen measuring 18 meters wide and 4 meters high. The videos on display explore changes in sea routes and the future of the ocean from the perspective that "the sea is a path connecting humanity and the world."
Rather than simply showing videos, the corporation also created an interactive space where visitors can feel connected to the sea by becoming part of the screen. When someone walks in front of the media wall, sensors detect the visitor's position and trigger responses from Arctic animals such as polar bears and Arctic foxes, which move or react according to the visitor's movements.
At the media exhibition hall on the museum's third floor, a themed exhibition titled "The Blue Heart, Mangroves" will also be presented to highlight the importance of marine ecosystems and convey a message about protecting the marine environment.
KOBC expects the media wall exhibition to help the public better understand the corporation's role while also serving as a cultural space where children and families can experience the value of the sea in their daily lives.
President Ahn Byeong-gil said, "I hope this media wall content gives children and families a chance to experience the sea in a more engaging way and to think about the value and potential of the ocean." He added, "We will continue to expand a variety of marine cultural projects so that people can encounter the sea more closely in their daily lives."
