stewart-film2-0616New Torrent Large Venue ElectriScreen Looks Incredible and Installs Like a Dream

InfoComm attendees are invited to see Stewart Filmscreen’s new Torrent ElectriScreen at booth C7425. This large-venue ElectriScreen system—designed with corporate campuses, educational institutions, and houses of worship in mind—gives installers and consultants the option of an elegant recessed roller screen with an image width up to 17 feet wide.

The Torrent has a streamlined case with a beautiful finish, designed to be only 9 ¼ inches tall by 12 ½ inches deep — considerably smaller than competitors’ offerings and preceding Stewart units of this scale. The small case height and simple four-point mounting system allow the Torrent to fit a wider range of ceiling depths, reducing the workload on integrators. Torrent eliminates side access covers through use of offset interior endplates. Unlike many competing offerings, Stewart ensures a substantially reinforced roller system to handle traditional aspect ratios, but also can customize Torrent with plenty of extra black drop above the image area for rooms with high ceilings.

Torrent features a self-finishing ceiling flange for clean lines. With the self-finishing flange incorporated into the design, installations can be completed quicker, without the need for additional trim or molding. Additionally, the screen control system is located inside the case. Torrent’s dust plate removes easily for total access to the roller system and control connections during installation and clips back into place for a clean slotted appearance from below. With access to the control connections inside the case with accessibility from below, finalizing the installation connections is much easier and more reliable for the installer. Should there ever arise a need for future access for screen upgrade or service, the easy-access dust plate design saves time and money; adding to the lower total cost of ownership.

Because noise-level control is critical in all applications, Torrent features a 47dB, low-noise, high-torque motor system as the standard. Options for even quieter motor systems are also available. Like all Stewart Filmscreen electric screens, the Torrent can be configured with any of Stewart’s flexible front- and rear-projection screen materials (with the exception of Silver 3D), and has control options allowing for integration into virtually any automation system.

New Stealth XM Expands the Stealth Trapdoor Series with Larger Sizes and Streamlined Look

The Stealth XM screen was designed for large-scale applications where the screen must be completely concealed when not in use. Integrators can choose from a variety of Stewart’s front- or rear-projection materials for the ultimate flexibility. Like the Torrent, the Stealth XM relocates the controls inside the case for easy and reliable access. All functions, including screen operation, control system, and mounting protocol, are accessible via the door opening, instead of access panels. The Stealth XM trapdoor offers a hinge-less self-finishing appearance for streamlined installation. Thanks to the new roller tube design, the Stealth XM is now available in image widths up to 14 feet, significantly wider than previous trapdoor electric screen designs.

New Screen Material: FIDELEDY Vision 40

Stewart Filmscreen will launch its newest diffusion screen material—FIDELEDY Vision 40, at InfoComm. Ideal for digital signage, broadcast, and staging applications, FIDELEDY Vision is an innovative screen system that transforms LED displays to create a film-like appearance without moiré interference. The new FIDELEDY Vision 40 screen material features a lower transmission level and improved contrast that’s better suited for surroundings where ambient light is a factor, such as those found in many broadcast environments.
