Following an extensive testing process of all leading scanner manufacturers, NanoTech Entertainment reports that it has acquired two Director Ultra HD 4K motion picture film-scanning systems from Lasergraphics, a designer and manufacturer of high resolution, high speed film recording and scanning systems for the motion picture industry.
NTEK is a diversified technology company that focuses on all aspects of the entertainment industry. The company selected The Director for 4K Studios new facilities in San Francisco, and noted the system’s 4K resolution, high dynamic range and optical pin registration features, among other desirable features.
According to NTEK, The Director beat out competition because of its increased range of dynamic image quality, on-the-fly dust and scratch detection/reduction capability, scanning speed, and ease of use. Lasergraphics’ double and triple-flash High Dynamic Range (HDR) technology allows the scanner to capture more shadow detail from print film than any other scanner on the market.
“We have invested heavily into acquiring content now that we have the ability to stream Ultra HD 4K content into the home,” NTEK CEO Jeff Foley stated in the new release. “We tested several solutions, and the quality of output we were able to achieve with the Lasergraphics solution was unmatched. We are have already queued up several customers and are looking forward to bringing the ‘Future of Television’ to homes this fall.”
Steve Klenk, president of Galileo Digital, the exclusive distributor for Lasergraphics added, “We are very excited for the opportunity to work with the NanoTech team. By combining our phenomenal film scanners with the 4K Studios proprietary post-production process, the results are absolutely stunning. Consumers are going to finally get the Ultra HD 4K content to display on their new TV sets this year.”
The acquisition of the two systems is complementary to NTEK’s recent introduction of the world’s first Ultra HD 4K streaming media player, the Nuvola NP-H1. The company later this quarter said it is also releasing the nVidia Tegra 4, which is based on the Nuvola NP-1 and NP-C players.
