Abstract: A 3D laser projection systems and methods are disclosed herein. A laser projection system includes a left projector head and a right projector head, wherein a first video projected onto a movie screen by the left projector head has a first polarization and a second video projected onto the movie screen by the right projector head has a second polarization different from the first polarization. The laser projection system can include a laser light generator located a first defined distance away from the left projector head and a second defined distance from the right projector head and coupled to the left projector head and the right projector head with fiber optic cables that transmit light from the laser light generator to the left projector head and the right projector head. The laser light generator includes a laser diode configured to output light and to transmit it to the fiber optic cables.

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: Provided herein are systems and methods to configure an immersive theater environment by moving one or more screens. A movie screen can be provided with one or more actuators coupled to the movie screen, wherein the one or more actuators are configured to move the movie screen in a plurality of directions including, for example, up, down, left, right, back, forward, pitch, roll, and yaw. This system can include a processor coupled to the actuator, wherein the processor is configured to control the movement of the one or more actuators, synchronize cinema content for movement of the movie screen, process cinema content for metadata cues indicating movement of the movie screen, and track positions of the movie screen.

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.
