LIGHTNING STRIKES AT INFOCOMM ASIA

Emmy© Award Winning Digital Projection Display Technology Featured on Booth 800

Manchester, 5th March 2001 - Digital Projection Limited - a wholly owned subsidiary of IMAX Corporation - together with their distributor in Singapore, Tech-Men Communication Group (S) Pte Ltd are delighted to present a selection of products from the range of POWER and LIGHTNING Displays at the Infocomm Asia 2001 exhibition, 21 - 23 March 2001 at the Singapore Expo.

The Digital Projection POWER & LIGHTNING Displays are dynamic projection devices engineered for dramatic indoor and outdoor large screen applications for all entertainment and business environments. With light outputs from 4,500 to more than 12,000 ANSI lumens, the POWER and LIGHTNING Displays assure bright, film-like and attention-getting images on any screen size.

1998 Emmy award winners, POWER Displays projection systems are the result of a ten year development programme between Texas Instruments and Digital Projection, the only British manufacturer of fully digital projectors. At the heart of each Digital Projection Display is the compelling Digital Light ProcessingTM technology from Texas Instruments.

To make the most of this technology, Digital Projection has added its own proprietary optical, illumination and signal processing technologies. The result is stunning large screen reproduction of all images, whether originating in video or computer format. The unparalleled image clarity is partially created by the products' displayable colour spectrum of over one billion colours - nearly equivalent to the spectrum discernable by the human eye.

The highly acclaimed LIGHTNING 10sx projector, with 9,500 ANSI lumens brightness and a resolution of 1280 x 1024 will be demonstrated on booth 800 at Infocomm Asia by Digital Projection Limited and their distributor in Singapore Tech-Men Communication Group (S) Pte Ltd.

The LIGHTNING 10sx projector was the first permanent installation of a large screen DLP™ projector in Singapore. It was installed on Singapore's Sentosa Island for the multimedia water screen show at the Musical Fountain, "Besides its capabilities in delivering super-high-quality and high-brightness images, the LIGHTNING 10sx was chosen for the job also because of its high luminance efficiency and rigid mechanical configuration", explained Chu Jin-Dar, managing director of Tech-Men.
