A conventional 2.35:1 image

displayed on a 1.78:1 (16:9) screen.

Constant Vertical height and full resolution

are maintained. 100% of pixels are used.

Black bars are eliminated.

Black bars = lost resolution

CineWide™ Technology

Conventional Method

2:35:1 image area

How it works:

The video processor anamorphically “stretches” the 2.35:1 image vertically to

completely fill the display’s imaging chip’s. This allows all pixels to be used.

APPEARANCE

The anamorphic lens then “stretches” the image width to 2.35:1. Correct
geometry is restored, while 100% of the pixels are now used to maintain

full resolution and eliminate black bars.

STRETCH

CineWide and CineWide with AutoScope requires the use of a

2.35:1 or similar aspect ratio superwide screen.

CineWide™ and CineWide with AutoScope™

Until now, viewing movies presented in the CinemaScope™ 2.35:1 format
has meant the presence of useless black bars on the top and bottom of your
screen. It has also meant a possible loss of resolution because widescreen
digital imaging chips are in the 16:9 widescreen aspect ratio, not nearly as
wide as 2.35:1.

Through the magic of our award winning CineWide and CineWide with
AutoScope technology and the use of an appropriate screen, constant
vertical height is maintained, filling the entire screen area. When you
transition from a standard 16:9 (1.78:1) widescreen aspect ratio to 2.35:1
Cinema, the picture simply gets wider — really wide, just as you would
experience in a quality cinema.

While CineWide provides a fixed anamorphic lens, with the AutoScope
option the anamorphic lens in motorized and remote controlled.
