The nation’s largest retail and entertainment complex, Mall of America®,
has selected Doremi Cinema to complete the digital conversion of nine more of
its theaters. The unique complex features 2,259 seats throughout 14 theatres
with digital sound, image with 3D capabilities, D-Box seating and a VIP
theatre.
Each of the theaters will be
fitted with the DCP-2000 cinema server, the first commercially available server
capable of playing JPEG2000 digital movies conforming to DCI specifications.
Today, it is the most installed cinema server worldwide. Included in the
expansion is the installation of a Doremi IMB-4K. The IMB (Integrated Media
Block) utilizes Doremi’s patented 4K media block technology and ensures that
the theater is prepared for the future of digital entertainment.
“Theatres at Mall of America aims
to give guests the best theatre-going experience possible,” said Jill Renslow,
Vice President of Business Development and Marketing. “Partnering with Doremi
on the digital conversion of our screens will take the experience to new
levels.”

also chosen to feature the Fidelio, a Doremi Cinema audio delivery system that
provides narration for the visually impaired as well as assisted listening for
those hard of hearing. The CaptiView closed caption viewing system for hearing
impaired guests is being deployed in each of the theaters.
