Sony's immersive new display technology - Canvas - is coming to a city near you. If you missed its unveiling at InfoComm 2016, this is your chance to see it up close and experience what the industry is talking about. Each stop on this open house tour will include presentations from Sony product experts and visual demonstrations of why this technology is so unique:
Seamless direct view display with a viewing angle of nearly 180 degrees
Incorporates Sony's ultrafine LEDs in an exclusive surface mounting structure
Each pixel is only 0.003 mm2 in size, allowing the remaining surface area to be more than 99% black
Incredible brightness, color and high contrast ratio of 1,000,000:1
Canvas is ideal for any application requiring realistic, large scale, high resolution visual experiences: museums, theme parks, command and control, automotive, medical and more. Nothing compares to its depth, contrast, color, resolution - and pure visual impact. We will also demo our high-performance 4K resolution projectors with 5000 lumens brightness and blue laser phosphor technology on this tour.
