Bluefish444 Epoch card and Christie® Boxer 4K30 projector form winning combination
N. Melbourne, Australia, April 10, 2017 - Bluefish444, manufacturer of the industry’s highest-quality uncompressed 4K/2K/HD/SD video I/O cards for the Windows, macOS and Linux operating systems, is partnering with Christie® for a projection mapping demonstration at NAB Show 2017.
Bluefish444 have created a multi-faceted structure, which will be suspended above stand SL10021 at NAB Show 2017, and serve as a projection surface. Dynamic content will be projected onto the three-dimensional surface using the powerful Christie Boxer 4K30, a 30,000 lumen 4K projector. The Christie Boxer 4K30 will be driven by a media server which prepares content for projection mapping to almost any surface, and provides 4K 60 fps SDI video to the projector through the Epoch | 4K Neutron Turbo.
Bluefish444 and Christie have worked closely to facilitate this demonstration for NAB Show attendees and are pleased with the results, which highlight the power, brightness, and versatility of the Christie Boxer 4K30 and the quality, speed and reliability of Bluefish444 4K SDI video cards.
“Working with Christie has been an absolute pleasure and the Boxer 4K30 projector has surpassed expectations in quality and usability,” states Tom Lithgow, Product Manager, Bluefish444. He continues, “Bluefish444 are always looking to innovate and to demonstrate this innovation. The 4K projection mapping project for NAB Show driven by our Epoch card and Christie’s projector, is the perfect example of this.”
“Christie created the Boxer 4K30 to provide an unprecedented user experience with a focus on high-bit depth, high frame rate, and native 4K resolution reproduction,” said Curtis Lingard, senior product manager, Christie. “We’re pleased to join forces with Bluefish444 to showcase our exceptional display solution in support of their 4K projection mapping demonstration. Our customers benefit from the omnidirectional installation flexibility, the most versatile 4K connectivity and untainted pixel-perfect native 4K resolution – achieved only with the Christie Boxer series.”
