The Digital Cinema Initiatives (DCI) group of major film studios has passed all NEC Series 2 digital cinema projectors, including the NC1200C, NC2000C and NC3200S models, in accordance with its safety and technology standards.
All tests were carried out by the DMC/Keio University, a Japanese research institute for digital contents and media technologies.
NEC is the first manufacturer to announce all of their cinema projector range has achieved certification.
The DCI standard was created by the Digital Cinema Initiatives, a group of film studios, to ensure a consistent and high quality image for the cinema audience.
The certificate guarantees the overall cinema industry compliance with current equipment and performance criteria for digital cinema equipment and products. DMC belongs to the long-established Keio University in Japan. As one of only three institutions worldwide, it holds the licence to carry out the tests as part of the Compliance Test Plan for the DCI Digital Cinema System Specification.
