In 2009, Sony introduced an ultra-high-resolution 4K digital cinema projection
system combining an SRX-R320 4K SXRD projector and an LMT-300 Media Block.
Since its sensational debut, this complete system has rapidly acquired a huge
reputation among a range of users worldwide due to its advanced features and
functionalities specifically designed for digital cinema applications.
In March 2011, Sony announced that this system was the world’s first
to successfully complete the full range of compliance tests for the DCI
specification - the Digital Cinema Initiatives, LLC (known as DCI) is a joint venture
of six major Hollywood studios*. As a result, this DCI specification-compliant
system is now called Sony’s Integrated Projection System.
The SRX-R320 projector is equipped with three Silicon X-tal Reflective Display
(SXRD™) devices, delivering an amazing resolution of 4096 x 2160 pixels (H x V)
- more than four times the resolution of full HDTV (1920 x 1080), and achieving a
high contrast ratio of more than 2000:1.
The LMT-300 Media Block is a digital cinema server that incorporates hard disk
drives (HDDs) with a large storage capacity of approximately 1.7 TB and adopts
a reliable RAID (Redundant Array of Inexpensive Disks) system. It can play back
DCI DCP (Digital Cinema Package) files and allows the SRX-R320 projector to
show digital cinema programs. Another unique feature of the LMT-300 is its
Screen Management System function, which is equipped as standard and can
provide a variety of screen-management operations such as show scheduling,
communication with other theater control systems (eg, lighting and curtains),
and setup and maintenance of the projector.
Moreover, this projection system offers optional STM-100 Theater Management
System software that allows
theater staff to efficiently
manage multiple auditoriums
from a central PC connected to
the theater LAN.
With extremely high resolution,
outstanding security, and
operational versatility, Sony’s
Integrated Projection System
based on the SRX-R320 4K
projector is a perfect choice for
digital cinema applications.
* The six major Hollywood studios are Walt
Disney Company, Sony Pictures Entertainment,
Inc., 20th Century Fox, Paramount Pictures
Corporation, Warner Bros. Entertainment Inc.,
