self-adhesive rear projection foil
The

Exceptional image quality even in daylight environments is guaranteed using
common multi-media projectors. Mediavision is
currently looking for specialist dealers for further distribution. The
company will provide interested parties with a 50“ (100
x 75 cm) demonstration foil at a demo price. According to Mediavision
Klaus Kiesewetter, “Innovationfoil“ represents an ideal addition to the Magic foil which can
change from a transparent to a milk glass surface. Mediavision’s
portfolio has thus been enhanced to 6 different rear projection supplies. More: http://www.media-vision.de 8) avacademia: AV Planning Online

At the
photokina, Panasonic presented the latest professional plasma displays from
the 9 series apart from other current technologies and innovations including Lumix, e.cam, Viera and batteries. The 9 series features image
diagonals of 42“, 50“, 65“, and now also 103“. Furthermore, Panasonic offered
a glance at the future with regards to innovative monitor networking and
numerous other communications possibilities such as real-time media
distribution. The 9 series, exhibited at the photokina for the first time, is
especially characterized by improvement of image quality. In other words: 29 resp. 68,7 billion colours, a contrast ratio of up to
10.000:1, improved brightness of up to 20% as well as grey scales of almost
3.072 resp. 4.096 shades to boost full HD displays
sum up why 9 series’ image quality could be enhanced again. The 3-slot
concept offers system integrators a flexible advantage: whether analogue or
digital signal, CAT 5, RS-232, infrared or broadcast SDI signal –
professional displays can even be equipped with a new powerful integrated PC.
In order to meet the demands of high image quality in display sizes bigger
than 127 cm, the new plasmas - TH-50PF9EK, TH-65PF9EK and the 103”
TH-103PF9EK – consist of a native „Full High-Definition“ resolution of
1920x1080 pixels. Already established high resolution models such as
TH-50PH9EK and TH-42PH9EK complement in alliance with the lower resolution

As of
September Gahrens+Battermann customers can access
the versatile NEC displays MultiSync LCD3210 and
