SAN JOSE, Calif., April 30, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Pixelworks, Inc. (NASDAQ:PXLW), a leading
provider of visual processing solutions, today announced a collaboration with Wanda Film Group to set up a Film Innovation &
Ecosystem Lab in Qingdao, China. The lab will develop new technologies for film production and cinema displays, including high
frame rate and high dynamic range, and provide a setting to study how these technologies can benefit visual storytelling and
entertainment.
The latest cinema displays offer incredible visual performance, including high dynamic range and improvements in resolution and
frame rate. However, experience has shown us that to display movies in a way that truly mirrors the way the human visual system
perceives appearance, more advanced technologies are needed.
“Bridging advanced technology and artistic intent requires both the application of visual science and subjective testing. The
Film Innovation & Ecosystem Lab will allow us to develop new production and presentation technologies and to test them in a cinema
environment so that we can ultimately apply the techniques we learn for a better cinematic experience,” said Richard Miller,
Pixelworks GM.
“We are delighted to be working with Pixelworks, a world leader in delivering superior content experiences that retain original
artistic intent. We believe that this collaboration will lead to vastly improved user experiences in our theaters in the future,”
said Hengqin Sun, CEO of Qingdao Oriental Film Capital and Film Industry Park.
