Golf Entertainment Venue Solutions
Creating a world-class destination requires more than just great gameplay; it demands a seamless golf entertainment venue solution that connects every guest touchpoint. At Ramcom, we design and install the complex infrastructure needed to power high-definition simulators, interactive scoring systems, and immersive audio environments. In addition, our systems are built for high-traffic durability, ensuring that your technology remains as reliable as it is engaging. Ultimately, we bridge the gap between sports and hospitality through expert technical integration.
Launchpad Golf Centres
Innovative Tech for the Modern "Eatertainment" Experience
LaunchPad Golf is a Canadian-first destination that successfully combines tech-driven hitting bays with vibrant social and dining spaces. In particular, the two Calgary locations—Mickelson and Heritage Pointe—feature immersive AV systems designed and installed by Ramcom as a complete turn-key golf entertainment venue solution. Furthermore, by utilizing SAVI as the intuitive control backbone, we have ensured that these high-traffic environments are as easy to manage as they are exciting to experience.
Comprehensive Design & Infrastructure Management
Ramcom provided end-to-end support to ensure the successful delivery of these golf entertainment venue solutions. Our scope began with deep design collaboration and the coordination of all critical infrastructure and site provisions. To facilitate this, we maintained a constant presence in structural planning and site meetings, ensuring every technical requirement was met before the first cable was even pulled.
Elite Installation & System Commissioning
Once the foundation was set, our team managed the full installation of equipment racks, system commissioning, and the final project close-out. In addition, we ensured that every hardware component was optimized for the unique rigors of a high-volume hospitality environment. Ultimately, this turnkey approach allowed LaunchPad Golf to open its doors with a fully stabilized and high-performance technology ecosystem.
AV Strategy Solutions
Immersive Design & Seamless Multi-Zone Distribution
To create a truly captivating guest experience, we developed an integrated audio and video strategy that spans hitting bays, lounges, and dining areas. Notably, our golf entertainment venue solutions utilize SAVI in tandem with LG WebOS to deliver high-impact visual experiences across the entire facility. In addition, this social integration ensures that high-fidelity audio and crystal-clear sports broadcasts extend into bars and event spaces, providing the perfect ambient atmosphere for any occasion.
Technical Differentiation via SoC & Multi-Canvas Functionality
By leveraging System on Chip (SoC) technology powered by SAVI, we have eliminated the need for complex external hardware while creating an incredibly intuitive user interface. Furthermore, this advanced golf entertainment venue solution enables multi-canvas functionality on the LG WebOS platform. As a result, staff can display diverse content—such as live satellite TV, internal advertisements, and custom media—simultaneously on a single panel, ensuring maximum engagement and sponsorship opportunities for the venue.
Strategic AV Components & Hardware Integration
To ensure the longevity and performance of our golf entertainment venue solutions, we utilized industry-approved Legrand Chief Mounts for perfect screen alignment and maximum security. Furthermore, we integrated two massive LG DVLED signs (12x7ft), providing high-impact line-of-sight for live sporting events, marketing advertisements, and corporate buy-outs. Notably, these large-scale displays serve as the visual centerpieces of the Mickelson and Heritage Pointe locations.
Custom Engineering for Environmental Protection
Understanding the rigors of an outdoor hitting bay, Ramcom custom-manufactured specialized portrait enclosures to protect traditional panels from the elements. Specifically, these enclosures were engineered to mitigate direct ambient light, ensuring patrons can enjoy a clear, glare-free experience in all lighting conditions. In addition, this bespoke protection extends the operational lifespan of the hardware, providing a more sustainable and cost-effective golf entertainment venue solution for the client.
Advanced Multi-Monitor Configurations & Canvas Splitting
At the Heritage Pointe location, we utilized SAVI to power massive 98-inch screens across both the first and second-floor bars, each capable of splitting into four independent content zones. In particular, the hitting bays feature 55-inch portrait monitors strategically split into three sections to display satellite TV, marketing content, and a mirrored image of the In-Range scoring system simultaneously. Ultimately, these golf entertainment venue solutions ensure that every guest, regardless of their location in the venue, has a perfect view of the big game and their own performance data.
Dynamic Audio Environments with QSC & Sonance
To complement the visual experience, the client required a balanced, high-fidelity audio system capable of transitioning from deep ambient background music to a high-energy ‘party mode.’ To achieve this, we integrated QSC DSP processing with Sonance speakers, all managed through the central SAVI interface. Furthermore, placing this control at the staff’s fingertips allows for instant atmospheric adjustments, proving that our golf entertainment venue solutions are as functional as they are immersive.
Project Close-Out & The Future of Interactive Hospitality
The AV systems at LaunchPad Golf are central to the brand’s identity and national growth, serving as a premier model for tech-driven sports entertainment. In summary, Ramcom is proud to support LaunchPad as they continue to evolve, bringing their ambitious AV and lighting expectations to life. Ultimately, our golf entertainment venue solutions are designed not just for today’s launch, but as a scalable foundation for future innovation.
Scaling the Guest Experience with Smart Lighting & POE
Future sites will see the integration of advanced SAVI lighting features, allowing for a fully immersive environment that can be tailored for birthday celebrations or corporate brand matching. Furthermore, we are developing custom lighting zones per bay and larger displays for enhanced social viewing. Notably, our commitment to efficiency includes transitioning to energy-efficient Power over Ethernet (POE) systems. As a result, these next-generation golf entertainment venue solutions will offer even greater personalization while reducing the facility’s overall energy footprint.
