At this year’s CineEurope in Barcelona, Volfoni will showcase their latest advancement in passive 3D cinema technology: SmartCrystal™ Cinema Dual. This follows the success of their previous models (SmartCrystal™ Cinema Vertical and Horizontal), which are already installed in over 500 locations worldwide.
Volfoni is proud to take their concepts further with another passive 3D solution, this time for cinemas using dual-projection systems. Dual systems are notably used for creating brightness on very large screens. SmartCrystal™ Cinema Dual is perfect for retaining the brightest 3D possible when using two projectors. Exhibitors can now show passive 3D with their current dual projector set-ups – no investment in high-powered projectors necessary.
Entirely designed and manufactured in Europe, SmartCrystal™ Cinema Dual comes in two models: automatic and manual. Both are compatible with all DCI projectors available. They retain all the high quality features of SmartCrystal™ Cinema Horizontal and Vertical, including quick and easy installation, temperature-control via ventilation system, and 3D approved by the major Hollywood Studios. The automatic version, the SmartCrystal™ Cinema Dual-Automatic closely mirrors SmartCrystal™ Cinema Horizontal in its features, including automatic 2D-3D toggling, protection of polarizer filter from dust and damage, and various “boothless” configurations possible.
“We are very excited about this new modular version of SmartCrystal™ Cinema,” says Alain Chamaillard, VP of Cinema at Volfoni. “Now, exhibitors with dual-projection systems can choose a simple passive 3D solution to suit their needs.”
Volfoni invites you to view this product, as well as all of their active and passive 3D solutions, at their CineEurope booth #507/606.
