Digital cinema
In late 2005, interest in digital 3-D stereoscopic projection has led to a new willingness on the part of theaters to co-operate in installing a limited number of 2K stereo installations to show Disney's Chicken Little in 3-D film. Seven more digital 3-D movies are slated for 2006 or 2007 release (including Beowulf, Monster House and Meet the Robinsons). The technology combines digital projectors with the use of polarized glasses and screens. DLP technology is well-suited for stereo 3-D as it can handle the higher frame rates required for flicker free presentations.
