XpanD Introduces XpanD ONE™ at ShoWest.

March 16, 2010

In a move to bring advanced 3D technology to cinemas of all sizes, XpanD unveiled its XpanD ONE 3D system at ShoWest 2010. Designed for theaters with a maximum capacity of 150 seats, XpanD ONE offers owners of smaller spaces the same groundbreaking 3D technology found in the world’s largest and most popular multiplexes, according to CEO Maria Costeira.

“With an amazing lineup of 3D movies to be released in 2010, we expect fully digitized multiplexes to increase their programming flexibility by adding a few small, 3D-ready theaters inside their multiplexes,” said Costeira. “The introduction of the XpanD ONE system now means that our revolutionary 3D technology is available to all exhibitors, regardless of theater size.”

The XpanD ONE is a single cable, plug-and-play IR controller and 150 pairs of XpanD active 3D glasses. The system can be moved from one theater to another in a fully digitized multiplex, turning all the secondary halls into 3D theaters, as movie programming requires. Like standard XpanD systems, XpanD ONE does not require a silver screen and works with all DLP Cinema projectors.

XpanD ONE is available for immediate sales.
