The IMAX system was developed by Graeme Ferguson, Roman Kroitor, Nicholas Mulders , and William C. Shaw in 1971 THAT INFORMATION IS WRONNGG. infact.. Roman Kriotor, Graeme Ferguson, William Shaw and Robert Kerr where the inventors in of the IMAX in 1970. although, it was not 3D at this time but it was the best motion picture we were ever to experience.
Yes I have done it before.
Explain why the light is unable to reach the screen
The screen is curved to correct the focus at the edges. With a large screen, the distance to the edges from the centre is enough to affect the focus from the projector.
First of all you should have eye protection and then project an image of the Sun through a telescope or binoculars onto a white screen -- paper plates, walls and sidewalks all work nicely. On the screen you should see a bright circle of light. This is the disc of the Sun. Adjust the distance between the screen and the telescope until the disk is about the size of a small paper plate. The image will probably be blurred; focus your telescope until the circle becomes sharp. Using this method you can see considerable detail in and around sunspot groups.
about the size of a football field.
When projected, as the size of the screen increases, the Blue-Ray quality decreases. IMAX was made for large scale theaters anyway, so it would be better to show IMAX on a large screen.
The IMAX Experience is different because it uses 35/70 mm film which is bigger than the traditional size in the regular movie theaters. This allows the picture to be larger than that of a normal size movie, immersing you in the picture. A usual size of the IMAX screen takes up about the size of one wall in your theatre, instead of a screen being in the center of a wall.
IMAX 15/70 mm film is simply the size of each frame (individual picture) on the reels of film. The reason that the size is so large, compared to that of a standard movie theatre, is because of the size of the screen that the IMAX is being viewed on. A small film size would force a blurry picture, something that is unacceptable for industry standards.
yes
A standard IMAX screen is 22 × 16.1 m (72 × 52.8 ft), but can be larger.
One is in digital projection on a regular size screen in 3D while the other is on an IMAX screen in 3D (Xd).
An IMAX dome screen will surround a visitor in the picture, while a flat screen is typically like a large version of a normal movie screen. Note that IMAX 3-D can only be shown on IMAX flat screens, not domed screens because the image will be distorted on domed screens.
whenever they want to.
There are two different types of IMAX Theatres, IMAX domed theatres and IMAX flat-screened theatres. IMAX domed theatres have the image on a domed shaped screen in a generally circular room so that the image is projected in front, above, and to the left and right of you. IMAX flat screened theatres are like a larger version of a standard movie screen. IMAX flat screens have the capability to show 3D movies, unlike domes screened theatres.
IMAX is better than a regular movie theatre because of the size of the screen.The IMAX screen usually spans from wall to wall, unlike traditional screens that are mounted in the center of the room. The light used to project an IMAX film is a super bright 15,000 watt Xenon Bulb, which allows for a better, stronger, clearer picture with a higher rate of contrast. IMAX has special Sound Engenieers or Audio Engineers who specify in creating speakers with a more powerful output in addition to crystal quality sound.In addition, IMAX theatres are in general, of a much better quality, because of the standards that they have to abide by, set forth by IMAX corporation. IMAX tells the theatres which movies to play, how to show them, etc.
The screen is 97 feet high by 117 feet wide and it takes a 15,000 watt projector to fill the screen with action.
