Christie® has announced the debut of its next-generation digital cinema solutions, the Christie Solaria™ series, with the launch of the Christie CP2220 digital cinema projector.  Recognized as “the future of digital cinema,” the projector features Texas Instruments’ (TI) (NYSE: TXN) next generation DLP Cinema technology and an optional integrated 2K/4K media block.  Christie’s next-generation 4K digital cinema projectors will display 4096 x 2160 pixels of resolution.  While maintaining support for 2K external servers, these new models allow exhibitors to easily project 2K or 4K content, giving them the widest choice in digital cinema options.

The Christie CP2220 is the first in the new series of digital cinema projectors that also includes the Christie CP2210 and the Christie CP2230. The Christie CP4220 and the Christie CP4230, also introduced in June, are the Company’s premium 4K projectors and among the brightest in the world – like the 2230, the 4230 is capable of delivering over 30,000 lumens on the largest screens and delivers breathtaking 3D images. All next-generation Christie digital cinema projectors continue to utilise Christie Brilliant3D technology providing the ultimate 3D experience with the lowest cost of operation. 

All projectors in the Christie Solaria series are designed to meet Digital Cinema Initiatives (DCI) specifications.  They feature a new modular architecture for improved serviceability and ease of maintenance, with up to 25% lower cost of operation than competing technologies. www.christiedigital.com
