THE NEXT BIG THING
The IMAX® Experience in 3D, the world’s most immersive movie experience, has entertained and enlightened millions of people worldwide.
The Experience begins with the IMAX® 3D camera
The IMAX® 3D camera is one of the highest resolution image-capturing devices in the world. By simultaneously recording separate left and right-eye images onto two 65mm wide filmstrips – one for each eye – the camera captures spectacular images.
The IMAX® 3D projector
The 3D projector actually projects two separate images onto the screen. Polarized 3D glasses allow your brain to fuse the two images together, creating a single, pristine, larger-than-life three-dimensional image.
The IMAX® screen
The new screen is covered with a special silver paint that reflects twice the amount of light as a regular movie screen. It has a slight curvature that extends beyond the field of geometric recognition, incorporating the audience’s peripheral vision to enhance the feeling of being IN the film.
IMAX® 3D Fun Facts
- 115,200 film frames make up a typical 40-minute IMAX® 3D film. That is 27,000 feet!
- IMAX® 3D projectors can emit up to 30,000 watts of light and flash 48 individual images onto the screen every second!
- The IMAX® 3D camera is run by 14 motors and 11 microprocessors.
