3D THEATRE DESIGN
Cinemark
IMAX 3D Theatres have more than 1,000 stadium-style seats
facing an eight story screen. Each member of the audience
must wear polarized "glasses" which channel
only the right-eye image to the right eye and only left-eye
images to the left eye. With a 6 Channel digital sound
system the immersive experience for the viewer is nothing
short of awesome. The Best Seat In Town, really! |

3D CAMERA
The
IMAX 3D Camera records images on two 65 mm wide strips, one
for each eye, and advances the film strips one frame (15
perforations) for each shot at variable rates, to a maximum
of 48 frames per second, resulting in high resolution images
characteristic of the wide field of view of IMAX 3D presentations. |

3D PROJECTION
The
3D projection system uses a carefully aligned polarizing filter
in front of each "eye" of the projector (with the
two eyes having a different alignment), and have the audience
wear polarized glasses, each lens aligned carefully to the
respective eye of the projector. This allows excellent alignment
and picture steadiness. |

FILM FORMAT
IMAX
uses the largest film frame in motion picture history - ten
times the size of a conventional 35mm frame and three times
larger than a normal 70mm movie frame. The sheer size of the
film frame combined with the unique projection technology,
is the key to the extraordinary sharpness and clarity of IMAX
films. |
