Unilumin installs LED screens in large China cinema
March 3, 2022
Unilumin's LED screens, UC-A41 and UC-A21, have successfully passed Digital Cinema Initiatives certification and have been installed in the China Film Cinema Bei'ao, Beijing, a large DCI-certified 4K LED cinema screen, and Macroblock's LED display driver IC assists to speed up DCI-certified process for LED cinema screens, according to a company press release.
Foreseeing the potential of direct-view LED screens in the cinema market, DCI has recently included inspection standard for direct-view LED screens in the DCI specifications. Targeting the digital cinema market, Unilumin would require a high-resolution, high dynamic range, high refresh rate and high uniformity LED cinema screen to pass the DCI certification.
Unilumin found Macroblock's LED display driver IC, MBI5850, could meet the requirements of image quality by DCI. MBI5850 features 16-bit grayscale with low grayscale performance, 3,840Hz visual refresh rate with LED uniformity designed for fine pitch, high-resolution LED displays.
