16)  Mitsubishi: 67XP SXGA+ Wall Cube

At the ISE exhibition in Amsterdam, Mitsubishi Display Engineering showed the new 67XP Display Wall Cube with SXGA+ native resolution. SXGA+ is a new format with a 4:3 aspect ration of 1400 x 1050 pixels. Unlike the obsolete SXGA with its odd 5:4 ratio, SXGA+ is the same 4:3 shape as SVGA and XGA. The high resolution SXGA+ cube is good for close-up viewing, such as the system on show at ISE – two wide display for a Miranda Kaleido processor for previewing many small windows on one or two large screens. For control room applications, a wall of 50” XGA cubes gives the same angular resolution due to the greater viewing distance. For large control rooms it is better to use 67” XGA cubes because the wall is even further away, so the angular resolution is maintained. The SXGA+ brings this angular resolution to close-up screens, positioned just in front of the operators. The 67XP uses a new engine and new ultra short-throw, low distortion optics specially designed for the SXGA+ DPL chip. It has a Speed Swap lamp change as standard and incorporates all of the features of the XL series cubes such as auto brightness balancing, Smart Lamp color correction, and CSC set-up software for fast installation. The 67XP is available from Q2.

In addition to Projecta’s broad range of off-the-shelf projection screens, some situations might require a customized approach. In these cases, Projecta offers made-to-measure solutions that do not compromise quality or special installation requirements.

A master computer then controls various numbers of slaves synchronously. CountDown2 is the latest version of a timing control system for lectures and other events. Eight different setups can be programmed at the main station. Remote displays are connected to the main station via common XLR microphone cables. All settings can be adjusted during operation; if desired, a real time function can be set up.

29)  AV Stumpfl is now offering Display Warp

Austrian manufacturer AV Stumpfl has enhanced its multimedia software Wings Platinum by a new feature. Display Warp allows for pictures and videos to be distorted for projections on uneven and skew surfaces in a way that they appear normal and undistorted in the end. The correction is done by a graphic card only without using any extra hardware and also works with soft edge projections in multi-display operation. AV Stumpfl’s Wings Platinum lets you arrange and edit any type of media as objects in timeline tracks. This way, high-resolution pictures, HD-quality videos and multi-channel sound can be merged into unique AV shows of stunning image size. For this purpose, several projectors or displays are combined and supplied with synchronized image information from networked presentation computers. You are completely free to arrange the display area in any way you like, so that even overlapping soft edge projection is possible. The new warp function does not need any extra special hardware. It just works with a common 3D graphic card. In warping, Wings Platinum is working with digital high resolution original data from the production phase. In fact, Wings Platinum even has two warp levels – one for the screen and one for various displays resp. beamer. All in all, the introduction of real time Display Warp in version 2.1 has perfectly enhanced the Wings Platinum software.
