dnp Denmark to debut its newly-announced Supernova 23-23-screen material at the InfoComm Show in Las Vegas
USA - dnp denmarkwill debut its newly-announced Supernova 23-23-screen material at the InfoComm Show in Las Vegas (9-11 June). The new next generation high-gain material (NGHG) will be available with immediate effect on selected products, beginning with Supernova One and Supernova Core.

The 23-23 is dnp's response to customers requesting higher-gain screens for smaller projectors, in order to reduce overall installation costs.

The manufacturers thus set themselves a design brief to develop a new generation screen material that would address and eliminate (or drastically reduce) previous screen limitations. The key objectives were to: improve brightness uniformity, improve horizontal viewing angles and eliminate or reduce shimmering. In order to meet these objectives, dnp had to develop a new technically sophisticated 'second generation' reflector.

"No other high-gain material on the market can offer such wide horizontal viewing angles," says dnp product manager, Johnny Jensen. "With an on-axis peak gain of 2.3, the new 23-23 offers a 35% improvement in horizontal viewing angles over the 20-20-screen material. Additionally, the centre to corner uniformity has been improved by 20%. It also has a much higher gain at wide viewing angles, which makes it much more useful for wide viewing arrangements."

With the introduction of Supernova high-gain 23-23 material, dnp denmark will now have two optical screen materials that will perform "extraordinarily well in high ambient light environments", with uniform picture quality and ultra-high contrast. The ISF Certified 08-85 material offers wide horizontal viewing angles and as independent product reviews would suggest, is arguably the best screen material on the market.

Following the introduction of the NGHG (via the Supernova One and Supernovas Core) dnp will gradually phase in the technology for other products, such as Supernova Infinity, and at the same time further tests will be carried out to ascertain its suitability for edge-blending applications and for the home entertainment market.

As a result of this technological breakthrough, dnp's current high-gain material will no longer be produced.
