Christie at InfoComm 2017 Includes Spyder X80, Mystique, Pandora’s Box and New LCDs

Christie will again showcase the Christie Center, an integrated and synchronized sports venue-themed experience that provides a glimpse into the visual experiences that are achievable for even the most budget-minded user, at InfoComm. The Center features on-court projection mapping using Christie Boxer and Pandoras BoxQuad Server; warped and blended visuals including the iconic Wolf Head, 3D mapping using Christie Mystique; numerous LED walls, large-format LCD panels, and the future of Christie technology.

Introduced June 1 and making its global debut at InfoComm, the Christie Spyder X80 delivers 400 percent more pixel management capacity than anything on the market and is the only video processor-capable of managing 4K at a 60Hz refresh rate on every channel.

Built on standardized SDVoE technology, Christie Terra solutions support video formats up to 4K at 60Hz and provide unprecedented performance capabilities transporting and processing of uncompressed, zero-frame latency, artifact-free video over affordable 10G Ethernet components.

Thanks to Christie Mystique, even the most intricate projector configurations takes minutes, not hours, to align — saving enormous overhead costs for users. Each version of Mystique — including the new Christie Mystique Install 3D Projection Mapping Edition – flawlessly integrates with Pandoras Box to create customized, memorable experiences.

Multiple LED walls and more at Christie booth

Five LED walls are strategically placed around the Christie Center, creating striking backdrops and inside the booth’s bar are the new Christie Access Series panels – making their global debut. The front entrance features Christie MicroTiles in a 4×8 wall with content managed by Christie Spyder.

The new Christie DHD1075 and Christie DWU1075-GS laser phosphor projectors make their global debut at InfoComm this year. Combining several Christie HS Series features including more powerful grid-based warping and blending with Christie BoldColor Technology, all in a compact form-factor, both projectors deliver sophisticated, high brightness projection to even the more budget-conscious user at a low cost of ownership.

Whether used in fixed installations or event staging, the DHD1075 and DWU1075-GS are durable, rugged and built for extended, heavy use over a period of many years while delivering super-quiet operation and a powerful, vivid presentation every time.
