The Rolling Loop advances the film horizontally in a smooth, wave-like motion. During projection, each frame is positioned on fixed registration pins and the film is held firmly against the rear element of the lens by a vacuum. As a result, the picture and focus steadiness are far above normal projection standards and provide outstanding image clarity. The IMAX system has its roots in EXPO 67 in Montreal, Canada where multi-screen films were the hit of the fair. IMAX technology premiered at the Fuji Pavilion, EXPO 70 in Osaka, Japan.
