IBC To Feature Big Screen Auditorium

News Image
The most complex Big Screen Auditorium installation ever is set to feature at IBC this year in Amsterdam.

The IBC Big Screen Auditorium is located at the heart of the conference, where over 300 speakers will share insights on key industry issues.

Totalling five projectors, the Auditorium will feature a pair of Dolby Vision High Dynamic Range 6P laser-illuminated 4K projectors capable of 31 fL (108 nits) in 2D and 14 fL (48 nits) in 3D with an unrivaled projected contrast ratio of 1,000,000:1 and able to support all of today's DCI frame rates.

In addition, a pair of Christie Mirage D4KLH60 High Frame Rate 6P laser-illuminated 4K projectors will be featured, capable of unrivaled projected specification of 4096 x 2160, 120 fps, 3D. Whilst the maximum is 12 laser modules per projector, Christie will use nine per projector for IBC in order to achieve 28 fL (96 nits) in Dolby 3D—which is approximately five times bright than a standard cinema setup.

Other firsts include the 7th Sense Design Delta Media Server capable of playing content at 120 fps, 4K, 3D, and a 17.00m wide x 6.69m high Matt Plus screen from Harkness Screens featuring their 4K Digital Perforation Pattern with its reduced moiré fringing and improved sound transmission.

The audio setup for this year's event will be Dolby Atmos immersive audio, powered by QSC, and designed and built by a collaboration between Dolby, QSC and Terry Nelson of IBC's Technical Resources.

Julian Pinn, Executive Producer, IBC Big Screen Experience, said: "IBC is hugely appreciative of its long-term supporters who each year provide cutting-edge technology and engineering excellence to transform the RAI Theatre into a highly advanced cinema presentation auditorium and conference theatre."

IBC2016 will take place between 08 – 12 September at RAI Amsterdam.
