NANJING, China – The Xinjiekou International Cinema in Nanjing Deji Plaza hosted the unveiling ceremony for the world’s first acoustic transparent Cinema LED screen on June 26. Developed by Unilumin, this cutting-edge LED movie screen marks an upgrade from traditional IMAX screens to the UCine LED film projection system. The event featured a preview of the film “The Royal Cat,” allowing attendees to experience the new audio-visual technology firsthand.
What is an Acoustic Transparent Cinema LED Screen?
An Acoustic Transparent Cinema LED Screen is an advanced cinema display technology that permits sound to pass through the screen without distortion. This is achieved using tiny perforations or specialized materials, enabling high-quality audio transmission while maintaining excellent visual performance. These screens support high resolutions, such as 4K, and high frame rates, delivering clear, smooth, and stable images. Additionally, they are designed to reduce harmful blue light emissions, protecting viewers’ eyes during extended viewing sessions. By eliminating the need for a separate projection room, these screens save space and offer greater flexibility in cinema design.
Unilumin’s acoustic transparent screen, the first to receive DCI certification, measures 20.48 meters wide and 10.8 meters high. It supports a 4K96 high frame rate and has a peak brightness of 300 nits. The screen’s high contrast performance enhances the clarity and stability of high frame rate movie projections. It has also passed the TÜV low blue light certification, which helps reduce eye strain for viewers.
The screen features a unique module perforation design with main sound channel speakers placed behind it. This configuration achieves ideal acoustic effects in the cinema hall while maintaining the integrity of the visual experience. The LED screen does not require a special projection room, saving space and allowing for more flexible cinema layouts. This design meets the growing demand for enhanced audio-visual experiences in cinemas.
The transition to Unilumin’s UCine LED film projection system at Xinjiekou International Cinema highlights the industry’s recognition of and confidence in this new technology. Unilumin Group, the first Chinese company to obtain international DCI certification, offers LED movie screens in various sizes and holds six DCI certifications. In addition to Nanjing, Unilumin has completed projects at the Regency Theater in Los Angeles and the San Ya cinema in Hainan province.
