NovaStar | Ferrari World

Ferrari World is a global landmark in Abu Dhabi of speed and engineering excellence, housing the world’s fastest roller coaster beneath the largest space-frame structure ever built. In a destination where luxury meets high-performance racing, the visual experience must be as seamless and impactful as the Ferraris on display. To meet these elite standards, a mission-critical NovaStar control infrastructure has been integrated to manage the venue’s massive LED surfaces with unrivalled precision.

The heart of this deployment is the NovaStar H2- video Splicing processor . Designed for environments where “downtime” is not an option, the H2 utilizes a pure hardware FPGA architecture to ensure 24/7 stability without the risk of system crashes. Its modular “all-in-one” design, featuring six modular bays, simplifies complex signal management into a single, reliable interface, allowing technical directors to focus on creativity rather than troubleshooting. 

To achieve the breathtaking clarity required for a world-class attraction, the system utilises the H_2xRJ45 IP receiving Card , which is built for the most demanding video sources. This card supports massive resolutions up to 4096×2160 @ 60Hz and high frame rates up to 144Hz, ensuring that fast-moving racing content remains fluid and blur-free while  maintaining HDCP 2.2 compliance for secure playback. This processing power is matched by the NovaStar H_20xRJ45 sending card, which delivers a staggering loading capacity of up to 13 million pixels per card. For professionals, this output card offers a vital fail-safe through its multi-port distribution, ensuring the show continues uninterrupted even in the most demanding environments.

Driving the final image are 364 units of the A5s Plus Receiving Card, which provide the pixel-level brightness and chroma calibration necessary for consistent performance. This level of control is essential for reproducing brand-critical colors like the legendary Ferrari Red with absolute accuracy and perfect uniformity across every LED panel. By combining massive processing power with cinematic 10-bit HDR depth and 3D support, this NovaStar project transforms the theatre’s technical requirements into an immersive visual reality. This project underscores why the world’s most iconic venues choose NovaStar when performance, scalability, and absolute reliability are paramount.
