LAS VEGAS--(ENTERTAINMENT WIRE) via Individual Inc. -- Jan. 7, 1997--Snell & Wilcox, a world leader in professional digital television technology, enters the home theater market at Winter CES Las Vegas, with the "Interpolator," a revolutionary new video display processor.
The Interpolator is destined to replace line multiplication devices such as line doublers and line quadruplers in the high end home theater setting. It delivers stunningly sharp, stable, film- like images.
Interpolator also brings a new level of functionality and capability to the home theater environment by enabling seamless "no compromise" multimedia in the home theater. For the first time, home theater owners can mix and match television video (interlaced scanning) and computer graphics (progressive scanning) on the same screen without compromise in image quality.
Interpolator sets a new standard in video quality. It does what no other home theater product can do -- it identifies the "Golden Scanning Rate" for the video projector (regardless of the maximum scanning rate specified by the manufacturer, every display device is different and each has its own unique, optimal scanning characteristics, known as its "Golden Scanning Rate").
By delivering this Golden Scanning Rate, the Interpolator ensures the optimum output from the display device.
The Interpolator is the first home theater product from Snell & Wilcox, a leading manufacturer of digital video processing equipment for professional television broadcasting. Founded in 1973, Snell & Wilcox has grown to create one of the largest and most respected teams of design engineers in the world dedicated to research on the moving image.
The company is a pioneer in the design and manufacture of the world's finest high definition television, MPEG-2, standards conversion and digital signal processing equipment. The company lists many of the world's major broadcasters and top post production companies among its clients.
See Snell & Wilcox at WCES -- booth 5617, Las Vegas Hilton.
