What can we expect in 2014
CinemaCon is the start of the
cinema year as many manufacturers release new products for the
coming year. With the digital roll
out complete in many territories
the focus is now on immersive
sound systems. Dolby Atmos and
Barco’s Auro 11.1 lead the way.
BARCO ALCHEMY
The Barco ICMP module combines
the functionalities of an Integrated
Cinema Processor (ICP) and media
server into one single board and
forms the core of the Barco Alchemy
digital cinema projectors. Reducing
the required hardware increases simplicity and reliability into the projection booth. The smart projector even
detects potential operational errors
and warns users in case of mishaps. It
turns any Barco Series 2 projector
into a full-fledged projector and media server, and includes on-board
storage. With rich alternative content
inputs and the most powerful DCI
decoding in the industry, the Barco
ICMP is future proof and greatly
enhances your Barco Series 2 digital
cinema projector. Great in TMS
environments, a projector equipped
with the Barco ICMP module operates as standalone in single screen
cinemas.
Speaker and amplifier manufacturers follow with solutions to
suit cinema applications. Studios
are on board with production in
these new formats. Dolby has
secured 40 titles to date and have
Trusted supplier to NZ cinema
