Vibrant Summit goes digital with GPON,apps and more

Vibrant Gujarat Summit, just round the corner, provides delegates a fascinating opportunity to understand the state through digital technology. State government has set up various attraction points on the venue that will use the state-of-the-art technology to its maximum.

An infotainment zone has been created where from a 40 feet seamless video wall and multiple interactive systems will take the visitor into the past with real time rendering of Mahatma Gandhi and Sardar Patel’s speeches to experiencing 3-D walk through the future cities of Gujarat.

User technologies such as motion sensor, surface touch and voice to interact with graphics and visual mediums are on display. It would be an opportunity for people of all age groups to see first hand the latest technologies of the world. As many as 8 interactive screens will allow visitors the opportunity to play an interactive quiz and check their ‘Gaurav Quotient’.

Gujarat Manufacturing Technology Show (GMTS-2011) will showcase some of the best manufacturing technology from across the globe. The show will have participation from 45-plus countries and at least 1,000 foreign delegates. More than 40 companies from countries like USA, UK, Japan, Germany, Canada and Switzerland will participate to showcase their products.

A special application has been created that will allow users of Blackberry and Android based mobile phones to receive all important information regarding the summit including event list, time, date, venue, map and others. The application can be downloaded free of cost from www.vibrantgujarat.com.

Moreover, entire site of Mahatma Mandir has been made fully wi-fi enabled. Demonstration of the very latest GPON (Gigabit Passive Optical Network) can also be seen on the site. State Bank of India has also put a mobile ATM on the site. All this is likely to make the summit a truly paperless and digital experience.
