Wokingham, UK – (17^th October 2013) – Christie®, a global visual technologies company, will be exhibiting at GITEX 2013 at the Dubai World Trade Centre (20^th– 24^th October, Hall 3, Stand C3-3), with the first presentation in the Middle East of a number of new products.

First up is the Christie Brio – a presentation and content sharing solution which enables meeting participants to share across multiple locations, running audio and video presentations from their own smart devices wirelessly without the need to install any 3^rd party software. Brio features a whiteboard which can be shared in real-time for comment, note-taking or drawing – all of which can be saved, shared or recalled for later editing. As a result, participants are able to share information much more easily and leverage critical knowledge faster, allowing them to make more informed decisions.

Next is the Christie QuadHD84 – a versatile, quad high definition LCD flat panel that provides a unique interface for true 60Hz performance at a full 3840 by 2160 resolution, compatible with both computers and video sources. The 84-inch Christie QuadHD84 display provides rich, pristine and detailed images for the ultimate in realism. The super-fast refresh rate allows for smooth, real-time motion display of 2D content while its 50,000 hours illumination life makes it reliable and cost-effective.

Following that is the Christie FHD461-X – a 46” HD LCD flat panel with the tightest seams, best image quality and slimmest profile in its class. Featuring high pixel density, 1.07 billion colours and a 4000:1 contrast ratio, the ultra-narrow bezel Christie FHD461-X produces vivid, crisp images on a near-seamless tiled video wall display.

Simon Smith, sales director, EMEA, Christie, said, “GITEX is the biggest show in the Middle East for our industry and provides Christie with an excellent opportunity to present some significant new products to the region, especially Christie Brio. The Middle East is a key market for Christie and it is encouraging to see that the economy in the area is showing definite signs of improvement, a critical factor in our quest for future growth.”

Christie have a great reputation for delivering high brightness projection for event staging applications in the Middle East and will be showing video mapping, using three Christie J Series HD20K-J projectors to illuminate their new façade. The Christie HD14K-M 3-chip DLP 3D upgradeable projectors will also be on show.

Finally, the award-winning Christie MicroTiles with the new S310 screen will be used in a 6×4 array, in conjunction with the Christie i-Kit – a multi-touch interactivity kit which allows users to pinch, flick, rotate and scroll through content.
