June 5, 2012 -This year’s Projection Summit will feature two keynote addresses that will provide great insight into two key markets. The first will be from Christie Digital CTO Paul Salvini. In addressing future trends for projection and display technologies, Dr. Salvini will hit all the highs: higher brightness and advances in laser projection; higher frame rates, especially for stereo 3D movies, favored by filmmakers like James Cameron and Peter Jackson; and higher resolution, with the coming of 4K content. Christie has a rich history of innovative firsts, so it is worth listening to this company when it talks about trends in the industry. He will also discuss improvements in LED projection, the growing adoption of wireless technologies for projector control and streaming video, the need for smarter projectors, and the swift move to multi-touch display interfaces.
The second keynote will be given by Levin Tang, Secretary General of the China 3D Industry Association. If you have any interest in 3D, you need to hear this address. China is arguably the most aggressive nation in the 3D arena right now with Government mandates for 3D content creation, broadcast and display production, plus high enthusiasm and interest in 3D by consumers and professionals. The China 3D Industry Association is in the center of these activities, so this talk will provide a glimpse into the opportunities opening up in the China market for 3D.
