Telearuba Deploys Brainstorm
3D Technology
B

rainstorm's Production Services
team supported the recent
production of the Aruba Elections'
coverage at Telearuba.
Telearuba,
the
number
one
broadcaster in the country, extensively
used data-driven graphics created with
AstonElections, Brainstorm's templatebased election and business graphics
solution, and was complemented with
InfinitySet, the most advanced virtual
and augmented reality solution. This
combination allowed Telearuba to
display an impressive array of 3D
graphics and Augmented Reality at a
fraction of the cost typically associated
to this technology.
Telearuba conducted this special

programme with the
support of Brainstorm's
Production
Services
team which nevertheless
was on standby during
the entirety of election
night. "This proves once
again the robustness of
our systems," said Borja
Chirivella, Sales Director
for Latin America.
AstonElections offers a reliable
and eye-catching elections graphics
solution that did not require any
training or previous experience from
the user, and also that could fit smallto-medium budget requirements.
During the Elections Night, Telearuba

Telearuba election coverage

was able to make use of the wide
array of pre-defined templates
AstonElections offers, including Bars,
Pie Charts and a 3D version of the
Aruban Parliament that highlighted
seats with the colour of each party as
the results came in.
