Stewart Filmscreen Demonstrated New FireHawk Screen At CES

25-Jan-02

Stewart FilmscreenÆ illustrated the benefits of their new FireHawk screen at the 2002 CES, by projecting an image onto a split FireHawk/Studiotek 130 screen. FireHawk is engineered specifically for the single-chip DLP projector systems. The material's unique gray base combined with high gain enhances black levels, shadow detailing, color saturation, and increases the image's resistance of cross-light reflection.With over a 100-degree viewing cone and a gain of 1.35 with optical coating, FireHawk maintains a bright and vibrant image for single chip DLP systems. Even with the screen unsheltered from show light, the screen demonstrated the increased black levels and ambient light resistance.A year ago, Stewart Filmscreen introduced their current best-selling screen material, GrayHawk. GrayHawk was the first gray based screen material with optical coating designed for single-gun digital projectors. As technology advanced, Stewart Filmscreen became aware of the growing need to engineer a screen specifically for the single chip DLP projector, creating a brighter image for the lower lumen output.FireHawk will be available for shipment in February. Authorized Stewart dealers are able to help determine which screen is optimal for your projection environment. FireHawk is available in all fixed and motorized retractable frames with optional THXÆ Ultra-certified micro-perforations.Stewart Filmscreen has led the screen industry in new innovations since the 1940s. Stewart has two Academy AwardsÆ for Science and Technological Achievement. Stewart Filmscreen Corporation created such innovations as tab tensioning, seamless front and rear screens, traveling matte blue screen, Optawave (wide angle viewing envelope) BlackHawk and Microperf (collaboration with Lucasfilm).
