Abstract:
A system and method are disclosed for exhibiting wide-screen motion pictures, including in multiplex-style theaters, with an immersive, “virtual reality” picture-dominance effect not previously obtainable in such theaters. The invention uses a zero-gain or nominal-gain curved screen to accommodate a wide-screen presentation, and a digital projector capable of delivering fourteen foot-lamberts or more of light to the screen. It can support any theatrical aspect ratio for presentation, including 2.76:1. To eliminate image distortion, the invention uses mapping software to correct the image for the geometry of the auditorium and the shape of the screen. This correction is established for every aspect ratio displayed in the auditorium in which the invention is installed, and aspect ratios can be changed to display content with different aspect ratios during a program. The images delivered to viewers through the invention deliver the full benefit of the native aspect ratio in which they are displayed.

Claim (Index 33):
A system for exhibiting motion pictures to audiences in auditoriums located in motion-picture theaters, with the result of delivering an immersive motion-picture experience to the audiences viewing said motion pictures, where the improvement consists of the ability to switch automatically between motion-picture formats of varying aspect ratios during the presentation of an entertainment program which comprises the exhibition of said motion pictures, along with the ability to correct for image distortions caused by the configuration of said auditorium and of the screen installed therein automatically in response to changes of format and aspect ratio during the presentation of said entertainment programs.
