FULL STORY
======================================================================

Xinjiekou International Cinema in Nanjing Deji Plaza, China, has unveiled 
what is being touted as the world's first "acoustically transparent" LED 
movie screen. 

The giant display, reportedly the first of its kind to achieve DCI (Digital 
Cinema Initiatives) certification, was developed by LED pioneer Unilumin and 
is an alternative to traditional IMAX screens. Measuring 20.48 meters (67 
feet) wide by 10.8 meters high (35 feet), the screen uses the UCine LED film 
projection system to deliver a 4K96 frame rate and peak brightness levels of 
300 nits. The technology reportedly delivers exceptionally clear, smooth, and 
stable picture quality. 

In addition to its "visual excellence", the screen has passed the TV low blue 
light certification, reducing harmful blue light emissions to protect 
viewers' eyes. The Royal Cat 

The unique module perforation design cleverly integrates the main sound 
channel speakers behind the screen, using the LED box's structure to create 
an optimal sound cavity. This allows the audio to resonate perfectly within 
the cinema, delivering an acoustically transparent sound experience. The LED 
screen eliminates the need for a special projection room, saving space. 

The first film to be shown on the new screen was a preview of animated family 
adventure "The Royal Cat" from Chinese director Liang Cao. 

Unilumin Group offers LED movie screens in various sizes, ranging from 5 to 
20 meters (16.4 feet to 65.62 feet), and is the first Chinese company to 
receive international DCI certification. 

Away from Nanjing, Unilumin has successfully executed projects at the Regency 
Theater in Los Angeles and the San Ya cinema in Hainan province. Unilumin was 
also reportedly involved in the creation of the control system of the Sphere 
entertainment venue in Las Vegas. (Image credit: Xinjiekou International
