Expanding Sony Electronics’
formidable full-service digital cinema solution for exhibitors of all sizes,
the company today debuted the latest addition to its portfolio at ShowEast
2011: video-based business intelligence services made possible by Sony’s
Security Systems Division in combination with Envysion, a leading Managed Video
as a Service (MVaaS) provider.
The
solution combines Sony’s industry-leading lineup of surveillance cameras and
video analytics with Envysion’s best-in-class MVaaS technology to deliver
instant and actionable business insights to an exhibitors’ loss prevention,
operations, marketing and human resources groups, without straining IT
departments or exhibitor networks.
The video-based business intelligence
services add to an already extensive collection of digital cinema offerings
from Sony Electronics designed to address every part of an exhibitor’s business,
including fully DCI-compliant Sony 4K projection systems with 3D; integrated
software and servers; digital signage solutions with displays, controllers, and
software; installation, monitoring,
maintenance, content creation and distribution services; and financing programs
to help theaters modernize their operations in the most cost-effective way
possible. For information on any part of Sony Electronics’ digital cinema
solution, visit Booth100 at ShowEast.
“Today’s modernized theater has to feature
more than just the latest in digital cinema technology,” said Gary Johns,
senior vice president, Digital Cinema Solutions, Sony Electronics. “Sony continues
to evolve its end-to-end digital cinema offering to ensure that regardless of
size or geography, any exhibitor looking to bring customers the best possible
entertainment experience can do so with ease and efficiency.”
With a broader portfolio of offerings, Sony
Electronics is uniquely positioned to fully support exhibitors making the
switch to digital cinema and 4K projection technology. Momentum behind 4K technology is continually increasing,
and Sony Electronics leads the industry in 4K deployments, with more than
10,000 Sony 4K projection units installed worldwide. Aiding those upgrades is Sony’s
exhibitor financing and deployment deals, consisting of a range of financial
programs designed to meet the needs of any size exhibitor, including an exhibitor-managed
finance program, a flexible 10-year operating lease program, and a new low-cost
financing program to be announced at ShowEast.
