CineAsia, Hong Kong—Dec 10, 2017
Clarus XC Technology the Official Screen of CineAsia 2017
Harkness Screens the world’s leading screen
technology company and thought-leaders in on-screen brightness is once again
delighted to confirm that Clarus XC technology is the screen of choice for 2D
and 3D theatrical presentations during CineAsia 2017, the industry’s leading
event for the Asian market.
The
show’s auditorium in the Hong Kong Exhibition Centre features an 10.7m x 4.7m Clarus
XC 170 screen used to showcase the latest showreels and movies from leading
distributors both in 2D and 3D using RealD technology and Christie projection.
Designed to work with all polarized 3D systems and
regarded as the premium screen of choice for all 3D presentations including polarized
laser 3D due to its speckle reduction properties, Clarus XC screens create
visibly deeper 3D content which draws in the audience creating a more
captivating viewing experience. A whiter
and more uniform look under projection mean that colours look visibly richer
and more accurate both in 2D and 3D resulting in a more defined, sharper and
crisper picture without the requirement to vibrate the screen.
“We’re delighted to continue our long association
with CineAsia providing our Clarus XC technology for the fourth successive year, this time
incorporating our brand new NanolastTM technology which improves the
visual performance of the screen by creating an even smoother finish,” explains
Richard Mitchell, VP Global Marketing & Commercial Development at Harkness
Screens.
At its
core, Clarus XC technology features 4th generation d-smooth coating technology which has specific properties more
commonly seen in white screens. This
technology enables Clarus XC screens to benefit from significantly wide viewing
angles, improved colour and contrast and better light distribution compared to traditional
3D silver screens.
The screen also features Harkness’ exclusive 4K Digital Perforation
Pattern designed to improve sound transmission in the spoken range, reduce
moiré effect often seen in 4K projection and increase light reflectivity.
