'Star role' for acoustic panels in Hollywood movie

摘要

Wall panels developed by the Acoustics Group of London South Bank University feature in the new Ridley Scott sci-fi film Prometheus. The Leaf panels were created by international design company Anne Kyyro Quinn which asked the group to improve the acoustic characteristics, which it did by testing in its laboratory. The panels then caught the eye of the set designers of Prometheus at 20th Century Fox and as a result they appeared twice in the movie, first in a futuristic office and then in a bedroom scene.
