The Sony 4K digital cinema projections systems being installed at AMC offer the highest picture resolution of all available projection technologies (at 8.8 million pixels, 4K provides image resolution two times greater than 2K projection systems and four times greater than high-definition). This, coupled with AMC’s ability to exhibit content in an exciting social environment and on screens that are up to 90 to 100 times larger than a typical in-home HDTV, puts AMC in a position to offer industry-changing technology resulting in an undeniably superior entertainment experience, Lopez said.
The 4K systems include manufacturing techniques that result in an efficient installation process. Sony’s digital cinema team will work with AMC to provide technical support of the systems and operations management at the company’s theatre locations.
