Abstract: Disclosed herein are systems and methods for packaging, distributing, and utilizing digital cinema packages (“DCPs”) with multiple screens or projectors. A merged DCP generation system is disclosed that includes a DCP ingestor module configured to receive and decode a main screen DCP and a peripheral screen DCP, the main screen DCP and the peripheral screen DCP each comprising digital files that include audiovisual information and metadata to enable the presentation of audiovisual content. The system includes a DCP editor module configured to combine the digital files of the main screen DCP and the digital files of the peripheral screen DCP to generate a merged composition playlist (“CPL”) comprising reels designating audiovisual content shown on the main screen and the peripheral screen. The system includes a DCP mastering and packaging module configured to generate a merged DCP from the combined digital files and the merged CPL.

Abstract: An immersive display system is disclosed. The immersive display system includes a master projector system and a plurality of slave projector systems. The master projector system synchronizes the display of a video with the plurality of slave projector systems using a synchronization signal. The synchronization signal is sequentially transmitted from the master projector system to each of the slave projector systems, wherein the projector systems are serially connected to one another. Sub-frame video synchronization is achieved using the sequentially chained projector systems.
