At the recent International Broadcasting Convention (IBC) show In September, our manufacturing and sales partner Christie Digital made industry waves by introducing a 2D light level experience for 3D content at a digital industry conference. It also gave the public premier of its first prototype laser projector. Both of these steps marked significant development in the area of digital cinema projection<\/a> in audio-video solutions for the Pro A\/V market.<\/p>\n

\"Experience<\/a><\/p>\n

The advances in laser projection by Christie are helping to address one of the international cinema\u2019s most pressing problems \u2013 the unsatisfactory showing of 3D content at low light levels. Most Hollywood filmmaker are creating extraordinary 3D content, while later seeing their films being displayed at 2-ft lamberts or 3-ft. lamberts. Because of the low lighting display, much of the 3-D detail gets lost.<\/p>\n

For example, most 3D content shown in theaters are being shown in typically less than 3 foot lamberts (ft-L), when 14 ft-Lambert is the standard for 2D films. Some filmmakers are seeking higher lamberts. See this description for the suggested display lighting for the 3D version of Disney\u2019s Cars 2<\/a>, with the directions: \u201cThe light level specification for Cars 2 is 4.5 foot Lamberts, measuring white light through the 3D display system. The acceptable range is between 3.5fL to 5.5fL.\u201d<\/p>\n

The IBC show also marked the premiere of Christie\u2019s first prototype laser projector, showing the Martin Scorcese film \u2018Hugo\u2019 with a laser projection. Conference goers who saw the film remarked afterwards on its luminosity and light brilliance.<\/p>\n
