Digital Cinema

4K Technology

Rear projection televisions with native 1920 x 1080 high definition are now populating the consumer market. Any movie theater owner who aspires to deliver a better-than-home-theater experience today and in the future must ultimately provide higher-than-HD resolution. 4K delivers exactly that. Unanimously adopted in July 2005, the Digital Cinema Initiatives (DCI) specification version 1.0 for digital cinema clearly establishes 4K projection, defined as 4096 by 2160 pixels displayed on a 1-to-1 basis. Sony's SRX Series is the world's first commercially-available projector to deliver this resolution.
