Today, Timewaying’s LA2K-10 LED Cinema System was officially announced on the
DCI Compliant Equipment website. Riding on the vision to continuously upgrade the movie going experience, Timewaying decided to develop an LED cinema system in 2018. With over 3 years of R&D time and money invested, Timewaying is pleased to announce this milestone for their first product, LA2K-10.
Comparison of LED Cinema Screen and Projection Technology “Timewaying believes LED technology will revolutionize the cinema viewing experience because it delivers a truely black screen,” stated Andrew Chan, General Manager of Timewaying. “Since the screen absorbs light from secondary-reflection rather than just reflecting it, the intra frame contrast ratio can be increased by more than 20 times the ratio achieved by using 100-year-old white screens,” continued Chan, who further stated, “Even though the color gamut of an RGB projector can potentially be wider than an LED screen, Timewaying is convinced the improvement in intra-frame contrast ratio will practically deliver the real pure colors in the DCI-P3 specification.”
“Our plan is based on the idea of providing the LA2K-10 so it can run on a very reasonable power budget,” stated Kenny Chow, Chief Technology Officer. “With this new product, we’re able to show films at 3 times the normal level of brightness (45 fL vs. the 15 fL average with traditional screens) creating an amazing experience for the consumer while still only requiring roughly the same power consumption.”
“Timewaying believes delivering a good cinematic experience is still the key to good story telling and enhancing healthy social interaction,” added Chan. “With the launch of this new technology to the market, Timewaying is looking forward to working closely with both studio and exhibitor partners to bring outstanding film viewing experiences to audiences around the globe.”
