XpanD Continues To Drive 3D Revolution With New XpanD ONE™ Solution
In
a major introduction that extends the world’s most advanced 3D technology to
cinema environments of all sizes, XpanD is introducing the XpanD ONE™ 3D
solution at ShoWest 2010. Designed for theaters with a maximum capacity of 150
seats, the XpanD ONE system gives owners of intimate cinema exhibition spaces,
and fully digitized multiplexes the opportunity to offer its customers the same
groundbreaking 3D technology found in the world’s largest and most popular multiplexes.
According
to Maria Costeira, CEO of XpanD, the XpanD ONE system fulfills a specific need
for smaller theaters. “We understand that more intimate cinema venues are
investing in 3D,” she says. “With an amazing lineup of 3D movies to be released
in 2010, we also expect fully digitized multiplexes to increase their
programming flexibility by adding a few small, 3D-ready theaters inside their
multiplexes. The introduction of the XpanD ONE system now means that our
revolutionary 3D technology is available to all exhibitors, regardless of theater
size.”
The
XpanD ONE is a single cable, plug and play IR controller and 150 pairs.. The
XpanD ONE can easily be moved from one theater to another in a fully digitized
multiplex, turning all the secondary halls into 3D theaters as movie
programming requires. Like standard XpanD systems, XpanD ONE does not require a
silver screen, provides the brightest 3D images, works with all
DLP Cinema projectors and is widely acknowledged as the best form of theatrical
3D presentation.
Since
introducing the X101 active 3D glasses in early 2009, XpanD has sold more than
2 million pairs around the world to some of the world’s most prestigious
cinemas. The X101
Series glasses are based on XpanD’s “pi-cell” technology, and feature ,
environmentally friendly repeat usage , a power-saving auto on/off mechanism sealed and solid construction for long-term,
fully hygienic usage. With an extended product life of 5,000 shows per unit, XpanD provides exhibitors with the best return
on investment with their 3D systems.
XpanD ONE is available for immediate sales.
