BANGALORE:
Digital cinema solutions provider GDC Technology (GDC)
has been selected as the exclusive digital cinema provider
to convert all the cinema multiplexes operated by Inox
Leisure (Inox) and Fame India (Fame) in India.
It
is expected that full deployment will be completed by
2012.
GDC
says that the proposed contract involves GDC Tech supplying
Inox and Fame with 300 units of integrated systems comprising
GDC's Integrated Media Block (IMB) and Barco projectors,
as well as 75 units of GDC's Theatre Management System
(TMS) with theatre automation system, and the construction
of a Network Operations Center (NOC) complete with full
centralised cinema chain management solution.
"In
making this important transition, we wanted to ensure
the new technology would support our goal of providing
the best possible movie going experience for our patrons.
The GDC IMBs offer the highest reliability and picture
quality of any digital cinema server out there, which
is why we chose them exclusively for our patrons,"
says Inox CEO Alok Tandon.
In
February 2010, Inox acquired a controlling stake in
multiplex operator Fame India, which created the largest
theatre chain under the same management control with
combined strength of 68 multiplexes and 257 screens
in 34 cities nationwide, and is in the process of
opening more multiplexes in the current financial
year.
