Onyx Expansion in the U.S.<\/span><\/strong><\/h4>\n

Today, Samsung announced two upcoming Onyx installations at the Star Cinema Grill in Texas and at Warehouse Cinema by HighRock Group in Maryland. \u201cSince our unveiling for the U.S. market at CinemaCon last year, Samsung Onyx has revolutionized the cinema experience globally,\u201d said Nick Conti, Senior Business Development Manager for Cinema, Samsung Electronics America.<\/strong> \u201cToday\u2019s theatre expansion announcements in the U.S. showcase the praise and significant interest we have received from the industry since last year\u2019s unveiling and we are very excited to work with these visionary exhibitors on successful installations this year.\u201d<\/p>\n

Star Cinema Grill <\/a>will be introducing the 46 ft. (14m) wide Samsung Onyx p3.3 Cinema LED this summer at their newest location in Richmond, Texas. Star Cinema Grill in Richmond will be the company\u2019s most advanced and luxurious theatre to date that will serve as the model concept going forward. The installation is slated to finish in June of this year and will be the first Samsung Onyx p3.3 Cinema LED in the Western hemisphere and only the second in the world.\u00a0 <\/span>Key to the success of this deal is the relationships Samsung built over the last year with Moving Image Technologies (\u201cMIT\u201d) and CSI Leasing (\u201cCSI\u201d). Continuous dedication to the customer and being a leader in technology innovation sets these companies apart. Samsung is honoured to call these companies a member of the Onyx family.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cWe are extremely excited about our partnership with Samsung, MIT, and CSI. We know Onyx is the gold standard of premium formats of the future,\u201d said Jason Ostrow, VP of Development at Star Cinema Grill.<\/strong> \u201cWe are very proud to be on the forefront of this technological revolution in the cinema business as we always strive to offer our guests the best image quality available on the market.\u201d<\/p>\n

Coming this September, Warehouse Cinemas<\/a>, a venture from HighRock Group<\/a>, will be introducing the 33.5 ft. (10m) Samsung Onyx p2.5 Cinema LED at their flagship location in Frederick, Maryland. Samsung Onyx is a key technology included in Warehouse Cinema\u2019s patent pending tilt technology, SkyVUE<\/a>, which relies on angles and perspective for optimal movie viewing.\u00a0 The design utilizes elevated, tilted screens to create comfortable, ergonomic positioning for both sloped and flat floors.<\/p>\n

\u201cSimply put, Onyx empowered us to bring SkyVUE LED to the masses and there\u2019s no better partner to make our vision a reality,\u201d said Rich Daughtridge, President and CEO at Warehouse Cinemas.<\/strong> \u201cWe are looking forward to partnering with Samsung on this innovation that will change how customers experience theatre-going in the future.\u201d<\/p>\n

Availability and New Certified Resellers<\/span><\/strong><\/h4>\n

Currently available in three variations (16.7ft, 33.5 ft., and 46.2 ft. wide), the Samsung Onyx display delivers visual quality, technical performance and reliability beyond that of traditional projector-based operations. With the 4K model earning validation as the world\u2019s first Digital Cinema Initiatives (DCI)-certified LED theatre display, the Samsung Onyx brings the visual power of LED picture quality and High Dynamic Range (HDR) picture refinement to the big screen for more captivating and lifelike content.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Samsung Onyx continued to strengthen relationships with certified resellers in the industry, with 10 certified resellers to date. New certified resellers for the Samsung Onyx announced today include Ballantyne Strong, Inc., Sonic Equipment Company, Inc., Franklin Designs, Inc. and Cardinal Sound and Motion Picture Systems, Inc.<\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

Samsung\u2019s Starring Role<\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\n

As the world\u2019s leading visual display company, Samsung\u2019s expertise and technologies span countless product divisions and bring the company\u2019s innovation to the cinema industry. Samsung also equips its visual displays with industry-best components that work together seamlessly to offer an enhanced viewing experience for audiences globally.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Inspired by the gemstone of the same name, the Samsung Onyx brand alludes to the display\u2019s ability to showcase cinema content with true, deep and realistic black colours. When combined with an infinite contrast ratio and specialized low-tone grayscale settings, this pinpoint representation produces brighter and more detail-rich content that further makes viewers feel a part of every scene.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
